On The Drawing Board: Intimate Couple

My newest endeavor is a romantic couple in bed. I have done of few pieces of couples being romantic, and a few of couples in a bedroom setting. But it's been since 2004's "Buds" that I've illustrated a tender moment in bed.

Again I've started with the faces. It's what sets the mood of the whole work and for me it is the most critical. If I nail the faces the rest will follow. It also creates the characters for me. They begin to develop personalites and it drives me to do a good job on the rest of the piece.
