Those eyes are going to haunt me. Particularly her left one (well, the one to our right!). Very expressive, great drawing.

She's quite a creation (I've moved from the drawing to the writing now!)
Lovely visuals, as ever.

Thanks for the comments.
@GP, the good-evil line is fading. The description of her teeth required close attention.

@CJ, yes the heat vs chill helps this scene smolder.

@Laurita, yes my pencils seem lonely and very old.

@Estrella, Tabitha is real.

(failed to mention that in a demon-like way, but she does seem so real to me)

You keep me speculating about what takes place next? Your writing is marvelous and the characters are so lively, not to mention the drawing which makes Tabitha additionally real.

I like the way you are building these, and love the characters. G. P. picked out my favourite section.

The drawing is excellent. I suggest you renew your familiarity with the pencil.

I enjoyed the descriptions of the cold here – both in the setting and how it's chilling them. Nice contrast against her ember-like eyes and the heat of the situation.

Thanks, Deanna. Glad your comment came through, only once this time. I sometimes have trouble with OpenID on some sites, most often Blogspot. Uncertain if that's the issue, but I'll ask around.

Yes, eerie is good, for me anyway.

Thanks, Shannon. Drawing the nose is the most difficult part for me. Lighting is the key.

Glad to hear the story is going well for you.

Thanks, Anne. I've been wanting to do more drawing all these years. The world keeps me busy.

I like Tabitha. Thought she needed a drawing. One day, I'll draw Sebastian.
