Soft and Serene

Hey you guys! It's been a while ^^

I drew another picture since I'm trying to catch myself up so I can draw my new ocs This picture was the second to last one so that means one more and I know exactly how I'm going to draw it

Anyways..
About the picture I drew. This is x-CherryHime-xÂ's oc Aria. Probably without a doubt the most anticipated and most challenging drawing I've done. Reason being because how she colors versus how I color are entirely two different styles. I found her art sometime ago and immediately loved how she colored! I really wanted to try to draw her most colorful (and my favorite) of her ocs, Aria! I had asked her months ago to do so, but I felt my coloring skills weren't where they needed to be to even attempt this, so I waited until I thought I could match her ability so she'd like my picture ;w;

Drawing the background was a lot easier than drawing Aria. Coloring was ha! Not even simple.. I had to be very careful where I placed certain lines for her line art and coloring just as challenging if not more! BUT!! I'd like to take this moment to really thank Cherry for allowing me to draw her because I think this really evolved my coloring style further.
So.. THANK YOU CHERRY!!! c: I'm very happy you waited and that you STILL let me draw her! Thank you so much!! ;w;


Cherry told me her oc likes to sing so I drew her oc singing walking down the side of the road next to the ocean... to get to the candy/sweets store/shop XD She also told me where she likes to be so she's walking to it.. and the birds like her songs so they are following her too!! The more the merrier right?

For some reason the sunlight coming from inside the picture hit her very hard.. Maybe I should've gone for color instead of texture.. Oh well. Now she's sparkly :s
Sometimes I really wish I had a scanner. Then you guys could see all the detail T^T

I used Prismacolor colored pencils for this entire thing. So much sharpening.. Even more breaking.....
Also, the place she walked by is not her house, it's just another store. I'm sure her house it plenty amazing! Can't wait to see how Cherry draws her house ^-^ I mean if she wants to of course

I hope you like this Cherry!
