For Serenanna
Apr. 14th, 2009 01:33 pmThis is the fanart dedicated to the memory of Serenanna, a good friend and very talented writer who passed this February.
I had done two illustrations in the past for Sere's fic Dirty Deeds, and a while back she asked me to do one more, of this scene where Kakashi and Sakura are dancing the waltz. She wanted me to do it when the fic was completed, as an incentive for her to hurry up and finish it. Although the story will never be finished, I wanted to do this for her.
Sere had a degree in fashion design and was very passionate about designing and making clothes. She was very proud of the dress she designed for Sakura to wear in this scene and wanted everyone to see her wearing it. We talked often over MSN and discussed Sakura's costumes in detail, even down to what type of underwear she (and of course Kakashi) should wear. Lol.
I had to add this because I think it's important. When I did that pic of Genma/Ino for DD way back when, Sere told me the song that inspired that scene in the nightclub was 'Angel' by Massive Attack (which is actually one of my fave groups). I listened to that song on repeat while I was doing that piece for her.
The funny thing is, today, just as I went to post this new picture, that song came on my player...
It felt like that was her way of telling me she liked it.
This is for you, Sarah. Wherever you are, I hope you're smiling and squeeing over how hot Kakashi looks in a tux. :D
