An art trade with another one of my favorite artists, =Claparo-Sans!
This is like so overdue it's not even funny. Thank you so much for your patience.
This is =Claparo-Sans's original character Elpis, whose name means "hope" in Greek - so I tried to portray her in a really bright, hopeful, happy way. Honestly, I drew and re-drew this at least four times in various poses and scrapped a ton of sketches over the course of several months before I settled on this one - one of the reasons this trade took me so long ffff. Partially referenced a stock from =CathleenTarawhiti's excellent stock gallery, thank you to her. Drawn and painted in Adobe Photoshop, about 4 hours.
Here's the AWESOME drawing I got in return!!

Hi! This is absolutely stunning! Can I make an acrylic painting using this as a reference? I would link this image when showcasing my painting.
