Me? Fanart?

A week or so ago, pretty much right after school ended, I went through all five English translation Yotsuba&! in a couple of days. They were pretty much exactly what I needed. I was worn out from stressing over finals and stressing anew about finding a summer job. The great thing about Yotsuba&! is that it gives you perspective. It's funny and lighthearted, good for relaxing, but on a more profound level it really does remind you to "Enjoy Everything" in your own life, too.

In the third book, we both find out that Jumbo is a florist at his father's shop and get to see Yotsuba as a "flower cupid," giving out flowers to random people she meets. I thought the picture of Yotsuba with a huge bundle of flowers strapped to her back was adorable, and that she could hand out a lot more flowers if she got Jumbo to carry a bundle like that around for her (which probably wouldn't be too hard). Hence came this.

Yotsuba&! copyright to Azuma Kiyohiko. I used Volume 3 as a reference for the "flower cupid" outfit.

Teehee,
cute.

He's so tall and she's so short. xD

You know what couple I like in Yotsuba?

Erm,
Yotsuba's dad and that one neighbor girl,
Fuko.

I like. 'Twould be better in color, just because it would better define what's what in the picture.

I'm just going to give you some good, general advice. And the first bit is - play to your stengths.

Don't think about what the future will actually be, think about how cool it could be, and make it happen.
:iconevalilith:
Lol, thanks.

Errrm ok, I guess I never really thought of them as a potential couple... In fact I never really think about couples with Yotsuba. Even with Jumbo crushing on Asagi (the oldest neighbor girl) all the time, I never really think that anything will happen there. *shrug* I mostly just enjoy the lols.

Thank you!

I think you're right about defining, and I might color it sometime, but I've been feeling like my lineart has surpassed my coloring skill and until I get more comfortable with the basics of shading and highlighting I probably won't be submitting much in color.

xD Yeah,
it's mostly a comedy,
of course.

I know what you mean. Maybe Kyra will color it for you?
