This is Tuesday in her room after one of her nightmares. In the original story, Tuesday often had to deal with the aftermath of her nightmares herself, as her mother was usually never present when they occurred. There was always some question as to how far I would push the envelope with Megan’s self-serving ways. I didn’t want her to be so far gone that she didn’t acknowledge that she had a daughter at all, but I needed her to be selfish enough that she could blow Tuesday off for a couple days at a time. This image really captures her solitude and loneliness.
This is another concept piece of Tuesday where we were playing around with her hair and nightgown ideas, trying to make her more age appropriate. There were so many ideas available to use, it was just a matter of striking the right balance between all of them.
