For =laevris.
I originally planned to draw something completely different for her, but things didn't turn out well. Anyway, this is a day late- I apologise for that- but I really, really hope you like it.
I love you.

I drew this in honour of Brittany's mother's birthday. She would be 38 this year.

As some of Brittany's close friends probably know, she uses candles as a way of connecting to her lost loved ones and in particular her mother. Candles are very special to her, and the act of lighting one and sitting with her is quite a close and meaningful one. I've sat with Brittany a few times during these reflections of hers and by request chose to depict these scenarios with our fursonas Hayley (hers) and Shaun (mine). There are also a few details hidden in here which are quite personal which only Brittany will probably notice or take meaning to.

I don't really have much else to say about this piece.

Painting in the top-right corner was drawn by the amazing *Serphire. You can view the painting in full here: [link]

The amount of love and compassion you two have is inspirational. You are very lucky to have one another and to be there for each other. :heart:

Oh my goodness. Fel.
What have you done...?
This is so beautiful... so... I'm going to cry... I know I'm going to just turn around and cry on you...
This is perfect. This is so heartbreakingly perfect. It's... it's everything.
You're everything to me.
This picture means so much in ten thousand different ways and I have no way to get that across except to say a small, measly 'I love you'...
And that portrait of Mum... haha, she'd laugh, she loved animals... It kind of even looks like her, too... You even got the frame right...
Everything here is just... to detail... even to the burnt matchsticks we always leave on the table...
I can honestly not thank you enough for this. I really, really can't.
I'm going to hang this on my wall when I move out and I'm going to treasure it, forever.
This is beautiful, and you are beautiful.
I am so glad that I spend today with you. I was so glad that I spent my day in your arms and not crying alone like I have for the past six years since mum's passing.
She would have loved you if she has ever met you, just as I do.
You are the perfect man and I can never thank you enough for this, and for what this means to me.
I love you very, very much.

Well, if I remember correctly, you did indeed cry on me, haha...
I'm glad you like it so much and I'm glad you find so much meaning and emotional value in this. I originally wasn't sure how you would react- whether you would get completely upset or if you would act positively towards it- I'm glad it was the latter.
I'm so happy I made the day bearable and I'm so happy that you love this piece so much.
I love you.
I really, really do.

I did, but it was worth every last tear.
It's everything to me, just as you are, my love. <3
You made my day worth living. I can never thank you enough for your service to me on Monday. I wouldn't have made it without you.
I love you, too. <3
