It’s not always rainbows and butterflies
It’s compromise that moves us along
My heart is full and my door’s always open
You can come anytime you want

I don’t mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved
And she will be loved
She will be loved

This is dedicated to Chantel and Racheim, a very special couple in Aetolia and celebrating what they had, simple as pie. (Sorry Racheim, I know his hair is actually a darker yellow with streaks but....)

This was also my entry for the Aetolian January Artisanal. I'm actually a little taken aback that it didn't even place, but that disappointment doesn't take away from my intent for this piece. (Maybe it was too abstract? that it wasn't Aetolish enough)

As a drawing itself, I'm just really proud. I honestly feel that this is the first drawing I've done in my entire life that approaches a professional feel. It's far from perfect, but after putting in 20+ hours to it, I'm way too happy with how it came out to care. Was also dabbling in a style I had admired for a long time.
