Friends, I’ve been hacking away at this drawing for days, and it’s still unfinished but at the same time teetering on the edge of Overworked. It is ambitious, and doing it stretched me some, and the next one will be better, and the young couple savoring a moment provides a bailout in that the conceit is that they are imagining these fantastical surroundings, and they deliberately leave their conceptualization incomplete, so that it will last until they finish it, which they won’t, so Forever.

There will either be a remake or a similar-themed image in the future. This time round it was make-it-up-as-you-go-along, but next time I’ll write all the acrostics first, calligraph them straightforwardly, print them, and THEN position them in space. You see in the drawing that some of the 3Difications are more convincing than others. The next one(s) will be better.

The full drawing will follow, but this detail is the heart of the matter…
