My best friend Laura Mckenzie (check out her TUMBLR!) has always been supportive and really likes the things I draw. So for her birthday present I decided to draw her some characters that she loves so much and frame them. This time I used the same pattern in each character.
I spent some time choosing the pattern I was going to use but in the end I used a geometric/triangle pattern that also happens to be the shape that reminds me of Laura the most because she is obsessed with triangles (strange, but that is why I love her!)
I was going to use only natural colour hair on this piece because I thought Laura would like that more but I couldn't resist adding pink, lilac and electric blue hair but I still think it looked good.
One of the best things in life is spending time making something and then seen the persons reaction and I'm so pleased that she loved the piece and she couldn't believe that I made it for her. Then we went into town for a few drinks to celebrate her birthday. I haven't seen this girl since Christmas and when we met up it was like we saw and chatted all the time. I had such a good time so thank you so much for inviting me and happy 20th birthday Laura Mckenzie x x
