The Christmas card

Last christmas a close familyfriend of mine (she’s more like a cousin) asked me to draw her a christmas card that she could send out to all of her friends, family and co-workers.

Her name’s Amalia Gonzalez and she works as a beauty-reporter on a Swedish newspaper called Metro and so I wanted to draw her as a really beautifull and classy disney-like character.Im not used to drawing illustrations in this way, colouring with soft brushes trying to make it look smooth and realistic and such but I think it came out quite well. ^^I always find it hard to sell things to friends and family members. To actually ask them to pay me for something I’ve done feels so weird.. So I usually just give it away for free.  Saves me from the uncomfterbul situation of talking about money with them.

But some weeks later when I came home i saw that she had sent me this big goodie-bag filled with girly stuff!There were more things than there is on the photo now such as lipsticks, rouge and other stuff but I dont really use those things so I gave them to my aunties mom and aunties  ^^.

Could’nt have gotten a better reward for my job ^^. Thankyou Gonza!
