I actually drew this one before the portrait of Holly, right around the time that 2014 was ending.  I'm really proud of it <3  This was the piece that kind of made up my mind that pastels were my medium.  It's my first framed picture, which means a lot considering I've got about 20 paintings and 5 drawings lying in my closet LOL

I mostly referenced this off an old calendar page that my art teacher had.  Neither of us could find the original calendar.  I once again don't know the size of it because this was a custom piece of paper, but it's big.  It's at least a foot and a half by a foot and a half, but I'm not sure.

Time taken: 12 hours
Done with pastel pencils and chalk pastel.
