Description Very late gift for , whom I love to pieces.

Time: I lost track...
Inspiration: Memories of being called 'Space Cadet' in school
Music: Caribbean Blue by Enya

Tara wanted a pic of Raven, so I drew what I was feeling like at the time: just floating around in space and ignoring everyone else. I'm pretty content with this one, I guess, it's not my greatest, but it's better than usual. Why you ask? Because this is my first tablet picture. It's hard for me, since I don't hold my pen like everyone else, so I always mess up and get hand cramps. >.<; It's also the first drawing I've done in my new sketchbook. :3 (about dang time I bought one ) I'd love to know what you think of it though. Any tips and advice are most appreciated.

EDIT: Sorry, it's all fuzzy when it's shrunk down to thumbnail size. Um, if it's not too much trouble, could you full-view? Thanks.

Yes, I undestand completely what you mean about the hair, pity I didn't catch it during it's creation all those months ago. I'm much better at hair now, not that anyone would know, seeing as I don't post much. Anyway, thank you kindly for your comment, it's most appreciated.

Yep, just a little. I still haven't drawn anything worthwhile in it though. T^T Oh, I'm glad to know I'm improving with the tablet too. I think it's become my new best friend. :3

Woo, thanks a bunch! I'm glad someone liked the bg, I thought I was the only one. Anyhoo, yes, that pose came totally randomly into my deranged drawing hand.

Anyhoo, thanks again!

Thanks so much. I had trouble making it so that the contrast between her and the sky wasn't too overbearing. (if that makes any sense at all O_o; )
