Description
Wow. It's been so long since I posted.
But I felt bad posting random stuff without finishing my "To Do" list. So here's the first of several "To Do" pics!This one is a combination VERY belated birthday/friendship/Happy-3rd-DA-anniversary picture for ~elf-shojo ! She is definitely my best DA friend... In fact, she's the reason I joined DA in the first place. So I wanted to draw her something to express my thanks for her always being such a great friend. She is unbelievably talented, so if you've never seen her work, you should go check her gallery out NOW. She's also a Rising Stars of Manga contest winner!
By the way, the picture is supposed to be a kind of representation of our DA names. It's not a portrait of us or anything! Which is why the blue-haired one has the star tiara. (I'm Falling-Starchild, after all!
) And it's also why ~elf-shojo 's character has pointy ears. I hope you all enjoy it! It took me longer than I expected, even though it's not exactly perfect. 
But hopefully it's nice to look at all the same. Also, thanks to all of you who have been watching me and commenting on my artwork while I'm away... I can't thank you enough! I'm sorry I haven't been around as much as I'd like to be. 
This is for you, Sarah, and thank you so much for everything!
(The star background was made by me, courtesy of a tutorial from here: [link] )

Hi, I really like this picture. I've always been fascinated with elves and faeries and such, but I've never been able to draw then. I'm jealous of your ability!
Ever since I saw the Fruits Basket doushinji you worked on with your sister, I've been going through and trying to comment on more of yours and your sister's work. You do a great job!

HEY!!! you have returned!!! Well, you HAD returned anyways... I am a bit late on commenting, ne?
ANYWAYS, I love love love this picture!!!!!!! The colors are so beautiful together... the black doesn't take over the picture, since you have achieved a 'soft' black color!
And the folds are so simple and nice! Allowing the eye to fully appreciate the beautiful intricacy of the hair! 
I'll have to fav this; it just has such a peacful beautiful feel!!!

This is beautiful, I like the duelism effect this piece has. Very dark as well in colors. I wish I had a dress like they are wearing. Amazing job again.

Wow. All of my star-filled backgrounds have now hidden behind passing spaceships in shame. Most of them were created in MSPaint, but that isn't the point.
Lovely hair and eyes.
Someday, when we've both finally caught up on all of our drawings, graduated from college, and become less busy...I hope I can convince you to teach me to draw clothing folds. *drool*
