Blankha "San Fran" Thelander was born and raised in the remains of the metropolis that had been known as 'San Fransisco.' And while her heart remained somewhere in those lost piles of rubble and erupted cement and babbling brooks through over-grown storm drains, the gregarious red-head fell in love with another: the sultry, sophisticated tastes and compositions that flourished in New Orleans.

Throughout all the wars, the pestilence and social breakdowns, New Orleans remained the nearly unscathed. It was as though the roots of the rich concoctions of folk were far too strong and proud to be eroded by chaos and anarchy -- or it could've very well been the simple fact that the peoples were above such depraved behavior. As things recovered from the nasty blows dealt to the Americas through Nuclear and Chemical warfare, the cultured city bounced back faster than anybody could've fathomed, doubling its splendor and allure and in the process: making history.

"San Fran" lived a lifetime in those heady swamps and lavish casinos.

A life lived, a life loved.
A life decomposed.
Hoodoo.

Wow, what to say about this image? It has lovely flow and the detail is just great. You can just tell she has a deep connection with the animals around her, as the croc is seemingly oblivious to her presence. I really like her (lack of) apparel as well, and the glasses give her a very learned sophisticated look despite the fact that she is knee deep in swamp water. I wouldnt want to be on the other end of her Hoodoo... or would I? *grin*

Very nice. With my being from New Orleans, I especially appreciate this drawing.
