The Best of Friends

This is a back-dated post for my archive project, where I am copying over every piece of art I have ever submitted to DeviantArt, with the original submission date or watermarked year stamp, so a complete archive of my work can be found on this website.

The Best of Friends by Sidney Eileen, 8"x10" graphite pencil on smooth paper. Roughly 40 hours of work.

This is a portfolio piece only. I will not be making any prints of this drawing. I seriously debated whether or not to even post it, because I have no idea where I got the photo I referenced for this drawing. However, I was too happy with the result to not share it.

EDIT: Two wonderful people tracked down wallpaper sites where the original photo can be found. (links are now defunct)

1 was found by ~Seadesigns
2 was found by =Amarevia.

EDIT: *EatToast tracked down the photographer! Rachel Hale was the mystery photographer whos work I referenced for this piece.

Thank you to everyone who helped me find the source of my reference.
