Well today is another year that I got to live. In commemoration I drew a picture of Ai Takahashi as the last drawing of the past year and the first drawing of my new year on this earth. I started doing this on new years, but I think it makes more sense to do it every time I gain a new year of life. Don’t you think. I do this to mark my progress every year and also to make those days even more special. Truthfully the reason I was able to be content over the years was because I had Morning Musume  fill me with laughter and awe when watching their music videos or variety shows. The person that really stood out and made me get interested in the group though was Ai-chan. The first ever appearance (for me) was in their music video “Mikan”. That video just captivated me and left me wanting more. It was truly painful having her go, just when I was beginning to know her.

For this reason I decided to draw her, my favorite Momusu.

 

It may not be my best work, but it isn’t too bad either.

Another drawing that I am working on, is of another one of my favorite Momusus (although I do have to admit that I absolutely love all the members from the “Platinum Era”), Reina Tanaka. This is the last drawing I have worked on this day, another present to my self. And also a work that I wish to present to Reina-chan on her birthday this month. I will do my best to make it one of my greatest pieces.

As of now it is still a work in progress, but here is a sneak peak:
