Being the poor artist trying to earn money for school, I don't have any money for wedding gifts for all my friends who are of marrying age, and have found their soul-mates. So, instead of buying one of 5 toasters that they don't need, with money I don't have, I decided a couple years ago to do draw their engagement photos and give them that! It's a one-of-a-kind gift that is very personal and takes a lot of work, and is usually very appreciated by the couple, and is a lot easier on my non-existent budget. I also wanted to have a work-in-progress (kind of) of a portrait I've done. This particular drawing was of a super cute and talented couple who's wedding reception was way too much fun.
This is a beautiful sketch of this couple. I'm sure this will be a treasure. Great idea for a gift too!
