A Star for a Heart

Description

My entry for "A Star For a Heart" contest hosted by :iconeshkenazi:
There's still time for more entries, go check it out here! [link]

The prompt: Once there was a girl who was born from a stone and she had star for a heart. One day she met a boy and put her heart in his hands. And it was magic.

Since the girl is born from a stone, it would make sense that she is small, so I made her a little stone faerie. Gives a new meaning to the term "precious stone," hee. She's a shy little thing... ^__^ My friend Kelly helped me come up with the idea. The background is meant to suggest a heart-shape. And look, I drew a boy without elf ears! *gasp*
(Batty: Aahh! Human!)

Took about three days total from sketch to painting. Pencil and Photoshop. I need more practice drawing children, heh.

Through the palm of his hand he could feel the warmth.

The warmth of the shinning star that she held in her hands.

He found her in the blast furnace.

Among the garbage covered in filth.

He took her away.

Back to his home.

To a secret hide-a-way in the back yard green house.

There, with great care, and over the course of a week he did his best to nurse her back to health.

And she did get better and each day they grew closer and closer together...
