Coffee Bride

I just want to make a few things clear. I did NOT come up with the idea for this artwork. I found a picture (very similar to mine ) in a chinese drawing book, and copied it with some tweaks. However, the tweaks are very minimal, and you can clearly tell that mine was a copy. No copyright infringement intended, I merely wanted to grow as an artist by attempting to draw the original in my own way.

I repeat, I claim no ownership of this idea although I DID draw the one I am posting. If anyone knows the source, please inform me.

Give credit where it is due.

If anyone is interested in what “tweaks” I did — I changed the colours from the original black/ocre/white to ocre/black/brown, I made the face a bit longer (a face is very hard to copy!). I like this “caffeine” tone, but the original looked nice too with the white highlights. I also freehanded the veil and the dress ruffles as it’s insane to try and copy line for line.

(To the original author This is really a beautiful drawing.
