<h2>A Complete Accident</h2>
<p>On the 21st of January, 2026, I worked up the courage to draw for /hmofa/. Practice makes perfect after all.
I couldn't get the eyes right, and this was before I bought a <a href="https://www.derwentart.us/" title="Derwent Art store page"> proper set of pencils</a>
<img src="icons/globe--arrow.png" alt="Outgoing Link">, so it smudged everywhere.
This gave her permanent bags under her sharp eyes, and combined with thick eyebrows, made her look like a stereotypical cougar.
The way I draw hair makes it look thin if I don't color it in, which only added to her age.
</p>
<p>
I thought a bathrobe would go well with her disheveled hair, giving her a comfortable and honest appearance. She knows what she likes, and it's (you).
One thing I always associate with bathrobes, apart from sexy older women, are exhibitionists. Combinining all of these factors gets you a nudist.
</p>
<p>Her main quirk, smoking, is explained by me liking the smell of cigarette smoke, and finding the act as <b>pure sex</b>. You also never see young women smoke.
I looked around for cigarette stereotypes and found that Parliament would suit her well, although Pall Mall isn't a bad pick.
I always draw her with a cigarette, and people have remembered that when they make art.

<h2>Why Make Her English?</h2>
Nudity is something you can only comfortably practice in places with mild temperatures, like Europe or some places of the United States.
It also has to be somewhere it's less likely to get you thrown in jail, ruling out the USA.
By now I was thinking of writing something with her, and the only place that would make sense for an American protagonist is the <b>United Kingdom</b>.
I had to look for a place that is:
<ul>
<li>In Northern England,</li>
<li>Populated enough,</li>
<li>Laid back,</li>
<li>Close to the shore,</li>
<li>And retains its own customs.</li>
</ul>
These filters left me with <strong>Beverly, East Riding of Yorkshire</strong>. The shoreline it's close to actually has a nudist beach.
<br>
I looked up what the accent sounded like because it gets more unintelligible the further you go north.
It would be funny to give our protagonist the worst case of culture shock.
