THE GREAT DAISY

I WAS WATCHING THE 1974 FILM ADAPTION OF THE F. SCOTT FITZGERALD NOVEL "THE GREAT GATSBY" LATE AT NIGHT NOT TOO LONG AGO. I HAD JUST SEEN THE NEWER BAZ LUHRMANN VERSION OF THE BOOK AND WANTED TO REVISIT THE VERSION THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY BEST KNOWN. I PAUSED ON THIS IMAGE OF STAR MIA FARROW AS DAISY BUCHANNAN NERVOUSLY SIPPING HER CHAMPAGNE AND SKETCHED IT IMMEDIATELY. I INKED AND PHOTO SHOPPED IT THIS PAST WEEKEND, AND EVEN WATER COLORED UP A TREE FOR THE BACKGROUND. I'M SO PROUD OF THE WAY IT TURNED OUT. I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST PIECES I HAVE EVER DONE. I HOPE YOU GUYS LIKE IT TOO!
