Description I made this to

Tombow Markers and ink on Canson Montval paper 300g/m2

The red string of fate, also referred to as the red thread of destiny, is an East Asian belief originating from Chinese legend and is also used in Japanese legend. According to this myth, the gods tie an invisible red string around the hand's little finger of men and women who are destined to be soul mates and will one day marry each other. According to Chinese legend, the deity in charge of "the red thread" is believed to be Yue Xia Lao , the old lunar matchmaker god who is also in charge of marriages.

The two people connected by the red thread are destined lovers, regardless of time, place or circumstances. This magical cord may stretch or tangle, but never break.

lol

merci, cherri!!!

Je suis desole, mon Français è terribile!!!

I'm a manga teacher here in my city, in Brazil!!! Not in a fanzine, I barely have time for my own drawings... hahahaha, but eventually I draw short stories, like 1 or 4 pages maximum. I also do a comic strip, wich is about a cat, Kelly. If you check my gallery you'll find it.
What do you mean about drawing for contests?

Thank you very much for your comments, you're really sweet!!!

A manga teacher \O/ First time I have ever met one !

Oh, by contest, I mean... Some artists on DA organize some contest about for example drawing a Character, or a Theme (like Autumn).

The fanzine I am working for have one too (deadline 28th November). It's about drawing this character : [link] Sorry it's French XD But everyone can participate.

Olha que legal... Eu tenho um desenho parecido com esse, muito velho, de uma paixão platônica do passado... Vou achar... Deve estar no meu picasa. Mas fiz no caderno, com esferográfica... Nada artístico. Gostei.

I love it~and I believe the red thread too~
the "Yue Xia Lao" in Chinese we call 月老(Yue Lao)...the 月老 make the "姻缘"(Yin Yuan), means the predestined fate of marriage ^^
