OMG, this is one of my favorite drawings from you. your elf is so graceful and elegant. there is such energy in the garments and the face angle is noble yet even more philosophical.
Looking at it, I keep going back to the relationship between elf and butterfly, wondering if they are not one and the same like the two faces of the same coin.
the background is peaceful but the hatching gives it movement like a slow waltz. I love how the leaves are left out, it makes it meditative.
OMG, your comments are the best ; __ ;
Thank you so much, @edouard <3 <3 <3 I am glad to have received such generous and kind words ; __ ; I live in fear, to be honest, about drawing more male characters in my style because I can only draw in anime style and sometimes I feel like my boys are not welcomed because they don't adhere to certain masculinity standards. So I hide them away~ so they don't offend people~
But it's super encouraging to hear that my expression and style are actually appreciated :) Aaah~ Thank you, thank you.
That part about the butterfly and the elf's relationship and maybe if they are one and the same really is very beautiful, you don't know how much I appreciate this comment ; __ ;
You made my day * ___ * ! Thank you so much <33333
Yay!
