Day Two Hundred Nineteen

Alright...

I feel like I’ve been away from this blog for years.

So, I guess I’ll just...begin.

The first word of my absence happened to be...

heav-y adj. Of great weight; very thick or dense; forceful; powerful; rough and violent; as stormy weather; of great significance; grave; painful, as bad news; oppressive.



As I happened to be reading an incredible book on the blues, “heavy” really brought the blues into my head. Anyway, I decided to illustrate a character (sort of, but not quite) resembling a favorite of mine-Lightnin’ Hopkins.



I’m not sure how I like this one, but it was a treat to illustrate as well as learn about these legends.
