Day 11 • Long Flowy Hair
"You have such beautiful hair, my Darling." Mercy could remember her Mother crooning to her in adoring tones. It hadn't been so long since she had felt the gentle magic her mother used to stroke the hairbrush through her buttery tresses. It was their time, no sisters, no servants when Mercy and her Mother sat together before the mirror and counted each brush,1, 2, 3, 4...a beautiful witch brushes more
7, 8, 9 10...she'll be fancied by all the men
22, 23, 24, 25...the most enchanting girl alive
36, 37, 38...who goes out to seek the finest fate
44, 45, 46, 47...all her days will be sheer Heaven
It really wasn't so long ago. Remembering hurt sometimes.

This is my third prompt from davescharacterart's Spooktober prompt list on Instagram and these have been some of my favorite prompts so far. They've stretched my imagination and that's yet another method of using Inktober to learn, and a great mental exercise.
I really felt the exhaustion from Thanksgiving preparations (I'm Canadian) compounded with Inktober, I fell asleep once while doing this piece. Haha! Anyways, it's a bit of a departure from my usual style but I really like it. It kind of makes me smile and reminds me of a children's book illustration. I also like having the opportunity to draw pre-lycanthropy Mercy.
(This was Inktober art from the 11th. I've since taken a break from the daily prompts becuase my eyes couldn't handle the strain.)Oct 14, 2020
