Princess Poppy

My son, like most two-year-olds, has multiple obsessions, and one of them is Trolls.  As I worked on tonight's piece, the holiday special was playing in the background.  Three back-to-back times.  It's a testament to the creators that I don't actually mind this, or the fact that I can more or less recite along with the original movie, line-for-line.  I love the movies, and I love the characters, so I decided to illustrate one of them in my own (larger-eyed) style:

MORE GLITTER!
And you know what?  I'm not going to say a single critical thing about it, because when I showed it to The Little Gentleman (he's way outgrown "Neeps" at this point), he reached out in wonder to touch it, and exclaimed, "Princess Poppy!" so I know I nailed it.  Plus it was super fun to do her hair, and the color-gradient of her dress.  Maybe I'll do Branch tomorrow.  We'll see.
