the dreamgirl

she's the girl you admire from afar, the kind who grabs your attention from across a crowded room and doesn't let it go. when you first see her, time stops and the world disappears, leaving nothing behind except you and her…

 

start...

This was the doodle I did during a production meeting at work. I was thinking about a girl and zoned out. Before I knew it, as the meeting ended,  this face was looking back at me.

to finish.

Two months later, I finished ~*sakura. Up to that point, ~*sakura was the best thing I ever created. I had no idea who she was or where she came from but that didn't matter because here she was.

It hit me hard when I finished drawing her. I was going through a period of un-creativity where no matter how much I tried, I couldn't draw anything new to save my life. So of course, I tried to replicate the magic. For the next 12 months, I failed and wondered if she was going to be the only one.
