'...when i stand next to you'

yay! a colored drawing! but i'll describe this to you, and my inspiration.

i used to do manga all-the-time, but midway through the summer, i started doing a new style. it was a marshmallow-isch style, and i liked it. since then, i've done many, many doodles of these guys, and putting my own style and such on it.

my idea inspiration is from a very talented artist, and my favorite here on dA,

she is an amazing person and artist, and she is a huge inspiration for me. her style is terribly unique, in drawing and in photography. i also like how she submits whatever she wants to submit, and not just what everyone else wants. it's refreshing to see an artist do art for fun, not for pageviews. it's terribly inspirational, and for that, i have her to thank.

but 'nyway. the subject explanation.

i had the idea to do this last week, when i was looking through her gallery. i saw this picture, [link] , and i thought it was the cutest thing... ever. and seeing all of her pieces dedicated to her boyfriend, erik, ( they make an adorable couple, i'm sure ) and it kind of impressed me. to have someone so special in your life to dedicate art to... is pretty boss. i also noticed her birthday had come and gone, so i thought it'd be a nice belated gift.

so, i drew out the idea, and then put my own spin on it. i started working ( 2 days after her birthday ) and drew out the lines in about 2 - 3 hours, 'till 12 i believe. i then inked it in the following days, then scanned on friday, then began coloring the same day. ( had to do all the scanning and coloring at school, and be a rebel -- the site is banned on this computer in certain areas, and working during class period was kind of hard )

i finished up today by trimming the edges a bit and making the image smaller, and now -- here i am, writin' the description.

i hope that 0xo, dee, likes -- or better yet, loves -- the small gift and dedication to her and erik. i also hope we can be friends, and that i can draw stuff for her in the future ( and i can learn a thing or two about coloring . - .'' )

so -- that's it. enjoy everyone!
