Broadway Pattern

When tasked with creating a themed pattern of my choice I decided to draw each image based on a different Broadway musical. Theater is a big part of my life and a very big interest of mine, so I had a lot of fun making this.

Necklaces

The fifth in a series of five illustrations made as a collective representation of how I express myself through fashion, in this piece I'm showing off my many necklaces that I'm wearing all at once, as well as how I usually like my nails longer, nicely shaped and painted dark. I'm almost always wearing at least 2-3 necklaces and when I'm out of the house I'm usually wearing at least 4-5.
