Description
Two of my best friends got maaaaarried!!!!!
And I thought I should draw their portrait and give it to them as a ... well, gift! So I asked for a few photos and since they had no idea what I intended to do with them, they sent me some "crazy" ones. And I chose the craziest because I just loved it! I love that they look so happy and so "themselves" here, I'm not a huge fan of formal, stylized photos. Anyway, it seriously tested my sanity because I only had two days to complete the drawing (not to mention that I wanted desperately to do a good job...) so after two full days, a sleepless night and many cups of coffee, here is the drawing at last. 
Good news is that they looooved it very much and they gave me permission to share it with you!
(I just hope they will not be recognized, lol!) The bottom-right corner was saved for wishes and ... words of wisdom by Joanna-Vu. Hmmm, not really but ... oh well, you know what I mean! Some things are meant to stay private.

No doubt this is the best gift they could expect from anyone.
It's a picture so realistic it looks like a photograph.
They have a great friend in you.
