The picture I posted a year ago was titled "<a href="http://ket-ralus.com/journal/2007/02/22/valentine-2007/">Valentine 2007</a>", and not something like "Valentine for Argon Vile". It was named in such a way that: 1. I assumed that I would be drawing another Valentine picture in the following year, and 2. I assumed that I would be drawing it for the same person. The assumptions were premature, but they ended up true. Argon and I are definitely attached. <3
I had a lot of ideas going into this picture. I had been planning this for months, and the actual work has been going on for two weeks. The end result may seem like a medley, but I liked the way it all melded together. I could go on about the unorthodox techniques and symbolic references I used, but it's all apparent in the art itself.
I don't know if I'll make another Valentine picture for next year, as I'm actually not one for holidays. Regardless, I still love my Argon, and the both of us will be cooking up some great pictures in the future to come, regardless of what day it is.

This was the followup to Valentine 2007. I really like this picture because I had a lot of ideas go into it, both metaphorically and visually. I planned it out over the course of several months, and the actual work lasted two weeks. The end result may seem like a medley, but I liked the way it all melds together. I could go on about the unorthodox techniques and symbolic references I used, but it's all apparent in the art itself.
Great picture as always, and I'm really glad for the two of you, I also hope there is another picture drawn of you both on valentines for years to come. ^^ I think you've both become a great couple in the furry fandom. Happy Late Valentines day btw! ~ Hope you had a great day!
Thank you for all of the kind words! Perhaps I will draw another Valentine picture next year, but I don't want to feel obligated to do one. Also, I'm going to be living with Argon starting next month, so that will change my options for what I can and can't do for him as a surprise (or as a gift in general). I think "a great couple in the furry fandom" makes us sound more relevant to the community than we really are, but it's still a sweet thing to say. ;} Thanks again!
