more molly...

I cleaned up some stuff that you really can't see at this size and I added some more birds in the background. I also gave her a tattoo on her chest. I was a little reluctant to do it because I have been seeing tattooed women all over the place, and I'm obviously no Shawn Barber. But I thought it would be kind of cool to connect her with the birds a little bit more. She's kind of like the "mother hen" with all the kids tuggin at her dress. I also just thought it would be fun to paint a tattoo and it made the space a little more interesting. I painted a graphic heart in between the wings at first, but then I changed it to a more literal one. And that is that. Look for this pretty girl on a wall near you soon.
