Description She passed hours to order her rebel red hair; he took a bath and shaved carefully.
He asked her brother to lend him the boots; she borrowed the golden badge from her granny.
They met on the hill, behind the church, on a sunny sunday after the Easter Holy Celebration.

Aunt Judy said: "There's no good in a son of a Lighthouse keeper."

DETAIL [link]
Pencil on paper, Painter Classic, The Dubliners (only they fault if I made such an image...)
Lately I'm finishing a lot of things that was waiting. Of this one I lost a file when my pc broke, about half the work I think. I'm glad it's finished!

moja mama mi je pricala kako je u bosni , i kaze da su socijalne razlike izmedju bogatijih i siromasnih velike, to valjda nije bilo tAKO prije...znaci euro i nije bila tako dobra ideja...Ali sta mi tu pricamo o tim stvarima?! Kako ti provodis slobodno vrijeme, dali izlazis? Italija meni djeluje kao Super mjesto za provod!

Mah, ovisi gdje si, u Milanu je super, prvih dvoje godina, ali onde je pomalo sve isto, kao i Uvjek.
Ovdje u trstu, je dosadno ko pas, predivan grad za obitelj, uzasan grad za dvadesetogodisnjake (mmmh, ja sam bliza tridesetki :fant. Cesto idemo okolo, do Ljubljane, ili prema Bologni...po ljeti je zivlje, kao u svim mjestima na obali.

Ali nema nista boljeg nego ljetni provod u mojoj Opatiji, ili okolo po otocima i dalmaciji

Oh this is really cute.. i love it! Beautiful work, my friend. Wonderful nostalgic atmosphere to it.. The little story and the beautiful clothing. Their postures are so great, the body language betrays how nervous they both are.. He's standing stiff, not knowing what to say and the way she looks at him shy and blushing is absolutely adorable.. You can read the question from those eyes: "could he be the one..?"

Why oh why doesn't it work like this any more? Everything was better in the good old days.. I'm a hopeless romantic, so i can't help but fave it

Bellissima atmosfera, si riesce proprio a sentire la tensione tra i due. La colorazione poi mi piace tantissimo!

this painting is so sweet and so different from all the things i've seen lately...it feels like eating a sugar-coated biscuit.i just love the texture of the colours,it's very different from the bright and agressive colours of digital art in general,it looks like a very old book ilustration made in watercolour.
excelent job!

Thank you, that's what in a way what I'm trying to do, I must admit that the pencil work and this kind of ochre paper helps a lot to gain this kind of look, and I always try to work in digital as it is traditional media. I'm really so glad you feel this way about the technique!

Nice painting and story to go with it. It has a wonderful old time feel to it, of simpler more innocent times, and of gentler more innocent hearts.

I'm so glad you think that way, I must admit that I giggled by all the drawing process inventing the story, it was very nice drawing it. A part the fact my computer broke at half the process and I lost a lot of work. But at the end it turned out as I wanted it. Thank you
