Description My friend asked me to draw this for her and her girlfriend's four-year anniversary. These are their OC's, sort of their male counterparts, Lex and Bailey, stargazing in an old bathtub they've got in their backyard.

Drawing other people's characters is usually an uncomfortable chore, but these two came naturally and were lots of fun. Maybe because I totally adore their creators. They're a perfect example of best friends in love.

All your romantic artwork is FTW. Stargazing in a backyard bathtub is quirky, and I'm a total sucker for love in tubs-- re: Big Fish. His hand on his boyfriend's chest is such a simple but very affectionate gesture. <3!

I helped build a set for a show that had a clawfoot tub and all I wanted to do was curl up and take naps in it. Never thought to drag it outside and stargaze...new item on my list of romantic things I must do!

As always, I adore your couples, even the ones that aren't your own are drawn so naturally and lovely. It takes true talent to do that. I comend you.

Working in Theatre affords some of the best friends and stories. I'm premiring a one act that was penned by yours truly tonight. It is the best job. Historical reenacting in the summer, dinner theatre in the winter, set building between shows, and late nights year round.

I love this so much, Lily. Thank you again! I actually was able to talk to my girlfriend on the phone today and got to hear her reaction to this-- she LOVED it. She just raved about how happy she was that someone drew our characters, drew them in Tolucca Lake, everything. This really was the perfect anniversary gift, you're the best. ♥♥♥

This is so good...too bad about the watermark though. But hey, whatever prevents art theft. It's been too rampant lately.

lily-fox In reply to Inkymint [2010-08-26 23:16:16 +0000 UTC]

Holy shit, did I ever learn the hard way. You HAVE to watermark. And as watermarks go, this one is really unintrusive.
