Description My first art trade ever, and for the super dooooper talented *Nike-93 and her OC's Walter and Luca (c) *Nike-93 ~Giury

AU or peace time mid-20th century (I am not studied on the latter era, so maybe!) - Walter takes Luca to a butterfly garden but the sudden rains scare the butterflies into hiding, accept for a few that seek shelter under their umbrellas.

Line work

And I got this masterpiece of my OC's in return. I'm so lucky!!!!!:

~mouse, your work astounds me.  How do you capture so much feeling and story in these little drawings of yours?  It must be the hands!  You are a master!

I knew that a trade with you would have been a good thing. And Fi-Di is right, you have built a little story in this piece.
There's something touching in Luca's way of putting his hand on Walter's leg, and the adoration on Walter's face is so endearing. Also, you used a fundamental feature of their story to built the backgroung, and it makes the piece  still prettier and thorough than it is
As I already told you, I love this piece and I hope to manage to draw something that you'll love likewise

(Giury has not been using deviantART for months, so I don't think she'll comment on here, but I'll show her this drawing and I'm sure she'll adore it )

OMG.

What you did with the EVERYTHING in here! It's so lovely and delicate, the feeling and the little story you builded up for this piece, suit Walter and Luca pretty well, as butterflies are a constant element in their story You just got so much of them And Luca looks so adorable! Nike is in love with this, and so will be Giury when she'll see it

thank you!

When I read their backgrounds I knew they were the ones I had to do. So endearing and heartbreaking and I loved the symbolism of the butterflies so I had to include them. Brave guys.
