Description
This is a (one day late) gift for my long-time friend !! This is the 8th year in a row where we've kept this tradition up of making a piece of artwork for our respective birthdays haha. It's difficult breaking a solid tradition, mang! You can find the other years I've drawn her character Nao for her birthday. Fun to look back at! But yeah, I'm super thankful for having been a part of this amazing artist and friends journey of becoming a respectable and skillful artist. We kind of became rivals (at least from my part) a little bit back in the day too which helped me improve my own abilities as an artist!I'll shush before I get too sappy! Doing portraits like this is a joy!

A very wonderful piece! You did so well on the reflections of her hair and eyes! Also the shading and lights of the necklace and lips are very realistic. I like the smooth colouration, very well done!
