Sunday Night Extra



One of my many stylistic obsessions is using two colours, as it was done in movies before three-strip Technicolor came along. This basically means limiting the colour spectrum to hues of red and blue-green, which results in a rather surreal, yet oddly appealing palette. It also means there are no blues, yellows, purples, true reds, true greens, and true... everything else. (Here's a detailed explanation on the subject)
(I'd post close-ups but the drawing came out a bit too grainy.)

And in case anyone was wondering (assuming someone's reading this), that nurse is based on someone real. By now she must be either dead or well into her 80's...
