This was a commissioned illustration for Shelle, who's also an artist having her own store on Etsy. I had such a fun time illustrating her two beautiful daughters! I felt I've known them for such a long time after reading their pictures, understanding they gestures, knowing what they like and not, and then drawing them out from all I observed and what I felt. I love the process and I love how when each line and stroke matched what I felt about their personalities precisely.
Each took way more time than I thought, but what makes it worthy for me is always the feeling of the illustration delivered perfectly as how I wanted. And now I understand why a lot of artists are hungry. ;)
