I'm sharing with you 'Horns', a drawing I created for Chapter Twenty Three of Doug Karr's amazing novel Dwelling.
Freshman year at college. Halloween. Her name started with an “L”. She was all slutted up in a little devil's costume, with sparkly red horns poking out of a headband, and somehow they'd lost all the other Star Wars characters and goblins, and found themselves alone sharing a pitcher of cheap draft, talking about her painfully recent breakup.

Darker tones were applied using Liquitex ink, a feather was then used to create a series of marks at the base of the horns.
The timing couldn't have been worse. Why couldn't she have cried it out at the bar? Her tears tarnishing a perfectly good sexy Halloween costume for the rest of Dorian's life.
