The "Unknown Girl" from my Where Red Apples Lie.

MyPaint + GIMP.

Taking a break from all the black+white+red to do some tiny bit of colour. :) Feedback and comments are welcome as always!

More like she has a grievance against someone else Griatch. Excellent facial expression. :)

Interesting how people interpret her expression differently! Some people seem to think her sad, whereas others (here and elsewhere) think she's miffed at someone else. Goes to show that interpreting expressions is not a straight-forward thing when presented without context like this.

This will appear as a comic panel later in my ongoing comic snippet, so hopefully the expression will be easier to interpret then (or not). :D

Now that you had said that I had another look at her especially her eyes. If you look into those eyes you would see that she's very angry at something or someone and not too sure what do about it.
