Rupa the Gypsy Crone

Rupa is a character that came to me last night while I was sketching. I didn’t intend to give her any color,  but Rupa with her magical personality won out.

And really…who could resist the charms of Rupa the gypsy crone!

  1. Ooooh, glad she won the battle! Although, the sketch is wonderful in and of itself, it’s great to see her in all her colorful glory. Where do you get the ideas for your costumes? You must have a wee bit of gypsy in you, girlie, hee hee!

  2. Love the outfit. Rupa has a way of matching the perfect gypsy togs. I am so glad she won the battle of minds and got her color on!

  4. Roberta I can see your style really developing. This piece is so wonderful! The patterns are the clothing are perfect and the detail of the purse and hat really make the piece sing. What a great character, I think she is the beginning of a great story.

  5. She’s wonderful. The color adds to her gypsy richness.

  6. She’s beautiful. I love her in color, but for some reason the pencil version just seems so right. Wonderful character design.

  7. I wonder what’s in her bag ???
