Illustration for a Friend's Wedding

Description

So I'm not *really* back.
This is, potentially, the first step towards resuming my hobby of drawing, and I admit I'm hopeful.

The past year has been very good for me, but not so grand for my art. While busy with work, personal life and taking computer science courses on the side, I've maybe sketched thrice, and wrote several pages worth of vague ideas.

In any case, my friend got married this weekend. She had this brilliant idea for a wedding present for her new husband: to calligraphy their favorite poem, have someone illustrate it, and get it framed. So when she asked me to do the illustration, it took me about half an hour to decide that yes, I will most certainly take this project on.
As it happened, I got about 9 days before the wedding during which I could start and complete this illustration - so it looked great in pencil, and sort of still rocked while I put the first layer of color down, and then I sort of screwed it up with the hazel leaves at 3am on the morning of the day I had to give the finished project back to her.
Oh, and since I didn't even try to make it very realistic - those are honeysuckle and hazel branches intertwining.
