version of giftart for Sayu w/ a filter

Gift art for my dear friend ~sayurikemiko, one of the first friends I made here at dA. She has been keeping me supplied with beautiful music, awesome comics, art, and most importantly, inspiration ever since. :heart::painter::heart:

This is her OC Vera, with friend Snape. Vera is startled and delighted when a curious squirrel scrambles down the tree to have a look at them. Snape looks on, bemused and a little saddened at his friend's easy delight with the world around her, a world he privately perceives as a much darker place.

The figures are horribly elongated, especially Snape. I kept him that way to illustrate a gangly, awkward teen, all knees and elbows :aww:

Hope you likes, Em, as I'm sending the original with an overdue care package :hug::wave::hug:
(( *2* Veras in one week - what are the odds?? You're getting a well - deserved fanbase here ;) ))

Love both versions! :heart:
May be you could do a third one, with Lily? :)
I've missed the kiriban one more time :(

The same with me, I love both versions.

I noticed more than once that Vera reminds me very strongly of Lily :heart:

Hey, you added a doe in the foreground :heart:

AND horribly elongated, gangly, awkward teen, all knees and elbows is always right, speaking of Snapeys ;)

:thumbsup: for the awesome gift ! Sayu is so lucky !

;_;!!!!!! GAHH! (in the best possible way) I got no sleep last night, woke up grumpy this morning early for class, slouched over to my computer, sat heavily into the chair, woke up my computer too (which was not grumpy), logged onto devart, and first thing I see is this. Thank you so much my equally dear friend! :) And great interpretation of Vera and Snape's views of the world. Love the palette and the squirrels HEEHEHHEHEHE. Hmm is that a jealous girlfriend in the baçkground? LOL Snapey looks adorable. :heart: heart: The elbows and knees suit him well! awwww thanks again! :love: it has been always so much of a pleasure workin with ya. I need to kick myself back outta this art block and get movin. I actually dragged myself out a little working on a page of the comic inspired by :iconnassstya:'s little gift, and this will help even more! Thank you! :love:

-:heart: Em

lookin forward to dis care package you speak of ;)

Terrific composition! :faint: I love how the sepia tones set the right mood for the scene, and how the bambi looking in the direction of the squirrels and the couple make the eye travel through the whole picture :D :iconclappingplz:

XD 'jealous GF'
this made me happy everytime I looked at it, for some reason :shrug: I hope it helps get that monkey - block off your back :shakefish:
I failed on V's mouth, tho, the original's worse than this :blushes:
**So u likes this one better than the unfiltered version?** because 1 has to go to Scraps. I did 'em w/ Copics, of course :icontraditionalart:

Thanks again for giving me an excuse to channel our old friend :hug:

I know they're not the focus, but I love the animals throughout the picture - they give it such a quaint feel. Wonderful style, as always! :heart:
