Wheeee...wow...when'd I start this?

Well...it was awhile ago. I put it off for forever because once I had finished her face I had no desire to do the background. I'm a horrible procrastinator...(Colored Pencil)

But this is the lovely Jessica.~ The first time I've ever really drawn one of my friends...I remember a while ago, we were still in high school and in our Humanities class -- having a good time with Schneider and art and jokes. Well, I realized I really wanted to draw her. She is (with no offense to my sexeh pretty friends :3) the most gorgeous person I know. She's talented and funny and nice and wonderful. And she's just...Jessica. I can't explain it. She used to intimidate the hell out of me because I thought she was too perfect to exist -- but when I became friends with her, I just discovered that she was a beautiful person inside and out. I wanted to capture it somehow. And it's the first time I've really had a desire to draw someone I knew...Normally I'd be petrified to do that, because if I drew them weird or something they might take it personally. But yes...I drew Jessica in this picture back March or something, and I did the background/clothes this week. A bit pathetic, but...what can I say? When I wanted to draw Jessica, I did not want to draw what was behind her. XD

Next thing I draw: No background.

But anyway...
I love Jessica, she's probably one of loveliest people I'm likely to meet in my lifetime...and I'll miss her when she's away.
College, splitting us apart..

:heart:

Picture of Jessica, that isn't the reference picture, because I hate the comparison..

I like what you do with colors and lighting. It makes me all envious and such. Plus just 'bout everything is just 'bout perfect.

Whoa-my, pretty eyes.

Wow. I'm amazed that this is finished. You captured her radiance quite splendidly, I must say. Great work.
