My Little Gothic Sister Sketches - Archive - Caroline Jones McKay - Artwork for children's publishing and greeting card markets

My Little Gothic Sister sprang into existence one day when someone asked me to draw something both cute and dark. I like to think of her as an interesting cross between Strawberry Shortcake and the Cure. I couldn't seem to decide how old she was. The older I made her, the vampier she got. That wasn't really what I was going for, so I made her a lot younger with clunkier boots.

Graphite on paper
