Description

Soooooooo... I have a younger sister. She's been after me for a couple years now to draw her something on various holidays/birthdays since they are (theoretically) perfect gifts from people who don't have money to buy things. Also, I never know what sort of gifts my sister would want. But I never get around to doing it because I usually just have too much going on, or she springs on me on the last minute, "Hey, my brithday's tomorrow, know what I'd REEEEEEEEEEALLY like?"

Anyways, the Olympics were a couple weeks ago. And as you ought to know, the men's ice hockey team won gold (FUCK YEAH!!!). As it so happens, my sister has been a big fan of Jonathan Toews for some time so not only was she beside herself that he was absolutely awesome in the tournament, but that he scored the opening goal in the final and now has a gold medal. She's quite proud of her Jonny. My sister also likes to troll Flickr and has amassed quite the collection of various hockey photos (I think she's something like the most intelligent puck bunny I've ever known).

So as a very belated Sweet Sixteenth Birthday gift, I spent eight hours in Photoshop doing this. (My secret? GRIDS. ALWAYS GRIDS.) Tried something with colour... I kind of like it.

I might do more (I have a nice picture of Luongo I'd like to recreate) but I have a lot of projects going on and very little time for art. I hate deadlines. I hate March.

So... yeah. Jonathan Toews. Go Canada.
