Description SURPRISE!

Second commission for ~StarryOwlEyes of her character, Gale. I am so so so sorry about how long it took me to get around to it. If you want any changes, let me know! I would have asked first but I wanted to surprise you after so long. I will send you the full resolution image when you're ready.

I'll be graduating in a week! That having been said, I have a lot of art to upload, mostly watercolor paintings and maybe a few illustrations, all from the private applied courses I took this semester.

The hair on this looks so soft and beautiful and the colouring is simply perfect, as with all of your pieces. The softness of the character's skin is gorgeous too and he stands out perfectly against the background.

Lea, words can not express how incredible your timing is.

I'm a young mother, a first time mother with a one and only child, and this week of all the 7 years of her life have been the hardest.

Six months now she's had these horrid tics, like a child would have with Tourettes. Her behavior in school was horrid, her behavior at home..horrid, and finally when she got into a fight at school I knew we had to get her to a doctor. (She choked the Korean kid in her class for no reason. )

Long story short, many fights later with nearly everyone in my life, she was diagnosed as best as they could with a syndrome called PANDAS [link] (no I'm not making that up, lol) BUT it has been an overwhelmingly emotional trying time.

Who freaking knew that strep could do that to a child! But 48 hours later she is back to her normal happy self. All of the self blame is gone, the worries, the fights. I'm taking a moment to unwind and relax, cried a few happy and relieved tears....and there this was.

You really truly have no idea how amazing it is. I see NOTHING that needs changed. Nothing at all, and I can't wait to get it printed and hung up in my office!!!!

THANK YOU. FFFFFF I can't tell you how much this means to me. You are so freaking talented. I can't wait to read your stories, and buy your art books someday. I think you'll go far!!

You are so forgiven on how long it took. I'm totally ok with it. You worked so hard, and it really shows. Thank you. I just…::runs off to scream at the world::

Thanks so much! I'm really happy you like it, and I'm sorry about all the stress you've been going through. That sounds like an ordeal (and yeah, really crazy that step can do that! I knew you could get rheumatic fever from strep, but, man . . . apparently it can do more than that), and I'm just glad it's overwith.
And thanks so much for the tip!!! I really appreciate it a lot. You're so kind. I'll send you the high resolution image here in a second. I might have to give you a dropbox link, if it's too large.
