I drew Morticia during a demonstration on how to use the Wacom drawing tablet in front of my 8th grade art class a couple of years ago and after getting some more reference, I drew a pencil sketch of this design. This illustration was created as an homage to Carolyn Jones (Morticia), Elizabeth Montgomery (Samantha), and Barbara Eden (Jeannie). I did the picture with the airbrush tool exclusivey. It took near an hour to paint Samantha's hair as it waved in the most-difficult-to-paint directions. The least easy part of the part of the image to do?- Carolyn Jones' shape of the face. My hand got so tired holding the books (reference), next to the screen as I drew with the other hand, that it fell aslepp a number of times. The image is 40% the size of the original. I chose to do this in black & white mainly because of Morticia's face and hair. It was fun to do this piece and though the composition could be more `involved,' I decided on a simple approach.
