Drawing – Merry Christmas

“It’s that time of year
When the world falls in love
Every song you hear seems to say
‘Merry Christmas
May your new year’s dreams come true…'”

~ The Christmas Waltz

This year, at least for my personal growth, has been a lot about revisiting my talents and trying to get my brain and my hands to work with my imagination.  I didn’t give myself the time to create original Christmas art, but yesterday I was inspired to get home and revisit an old drawing of mine.

The original drawing was meant to be festive art that I’d want to add to a card in 2012. The end result, now that I look at it again after all this time, just looked… lazy.

So I repainted it as I probably had intended it originally. I don’t know if I’ve gotten any better, talent-wise, but I’m much more patient at least.  The drawing took about 12 hours to complete in Clip Studio Paint. The comparison of cards is below.
