Insecurities

"Take me or leave me
I’ll never be perfect
Believe me I’m worth it
So take me or leave me

Call it a curse or just call
Me blessed if you can't handle
My worst you ain't getting my best
Is this how Marilyn Monroe felt, felt felt, felt?
Must be how Marilyn Monroe felt, felt, felt, felt"


I haven't drawn in a while. So, let's start with something small shall we? 
This is inspired after the song 'Marilyn Monroe' by Nicki Minaj. Veronica has undergone feeling insecured throughout her whole youth because of her adoptive sister Angela, being much more better than herself. Instead of letting her insecurities get into her, she decided to let go and be herself, for better and for worst. Why bother changing herself for the world when it's the world who should change their point of view? 

I chose this kind of concept since I think among the four girls, Veronica's experiences is very much similar as to what most teens went through nowadays. I want to show them that they shouldn't let their insecurities get into them and be more than who they are, whether will it be bad or good, accept your strength and weaknesses. Don't remain being weak and aim for being stronger.

And yeah, I went for a different coloring technique.



The highlights on Veronica's hair are natural, she mostly inherited her father's color but the ends of her hair is almost as similar to her mother's.
