Keres and the moment I said, ‘Screw it’

I posted a sketch of Keres awhile back in time for Halloween. It’s unlike most of the usual illustrations I make - bold and dreamy, but I welcomed the change. I worked on her halfway through November before taking a break because, frankly, I had no idea what to do - what look, what approach, and what feel. I hit a dead end. 

 

She had this sort of heartless, detached look at first like almost under an evil trance. And so in all my bold, doe-eyed, frivolous illustration fashion, I decided - screw it. I went back to my usual style and came up with this.

Which one do you like better? Let me know. :)
