Illustration: The Great Gatsby

A few days before The Great Gatsby premiered I watched the trailer and, not only did it make me want to watch the film right away, it also got me really inspired and so I started drawing this piece. I have been working on it on the side on and off since then. After doing some major tweaking in a few areas a couple of weeks ago, I was done.
Then, I got busy working on sewing patterns so this illustration sat on my shelf un-scanned for a while until this morning.
My favorite parts are definitely the chandelier and Daisy's sparkly head piece. The set and wardrobe design in this movie are ridiculously stunning. How could I have not been inspired?

As always, this piece in up on my web shop so if you'd like to make this one your own, you can snatch a print here.
