Bring back my teacher, Genie

Description

This is my submission for the Robin Williams/Genie Tribute Collab at the Disney-club. Traditionally drawn freehand on August 18th and then scanned to be colored digitally on the 19th. No tracing was done.

The girl with Genie is supposed to be actress Mara Wilson, whom starred with Robin Williams in the film, Mrs. Doubtfire. I read about her reaction to Robin's passing, how she said she felt like she lost her favorite teacher. Of all the articles, hers had a strong impact on me. Here, I drew her (or at least attempted to!) making a wish to Genie to bring Robin back. One of his limitations, however, is that he can't bring people back from the dead, hence the sad faces.

Since this was my first time drawing the Genie, I had to look over some screencaps, but I did go my own route of creating his body and facial expression. With Mara, I looked over photos to get the correct facial shapes and hair style.
