Description
' Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree, if you still want me...'I've been drawing this all day today, and I am very pleased with the result, if I do say myself. I actually slept last night, and that line above this text was being continually said in my dream and in it I was on Cissbury ring and I actually climbed 'Old oaky' (as me and Paul affectinately named it) and tied a ribbon to it. When I told my mum she said that the line came from a song. Apparently, back in her day there was a man in prison that sent a message to his wife saying something along the lines that when he gets out of prison, tie a yellow on 'The old Oak tree' if the wife still wanted him. When the bus drove by the oak tree, there were one hundred yellow ribbons tied to the oak. Ok guys, on the count of three, everyone go awww...1...2...3! AWWWWW!! Yer, that is a really cute story, and so, I drew this! Unfortuantly, my scanner has done it NO justice! Enjoy

the expression works really well for this, and so does the contrast of the yellow ribbons colour against the rest of the picture ^_^

Im glad it makes you smile, it makes me smile aswell because I start singing the song and remembering the dream. I actually went up to Cissbury ring the other day and tied a yellow ribbon on the old oak tree up there. Do you think I should draw more stuff like this then?

Wow.
This is really pretty.
The hair is my favorite part and the wings are outstanding.

Thank you very much. The hair is always a bitch to draw, and as for the wings it took me a while to decide whether to make them look solid or look like mist

Solid was a good idea.
If you had made them be misty, the pants would have stood out more since you really didn't shade those.
But, since you made them solid, it makes the pants look good. ^___^
