One day, I hope I’ll also have 20-30 similar pngs LOL

Kinda nostalgic & kinda struck with a particular mental image, I immediately sat down and drew this in one go. It’s not as polished or as nice as the original ciel lilies, but it was fun mixing it up, using a bunch of the same themes and motifs (curtainveil, white blouse, sunlight, and ofc, lilies.)

b) I was struck with this mental image of those early 2000s vocaloid/fandom MVs that were just 20-30 pngs of a character the uploader found online smushed together panning-slideshow-style and put up for all to view.

After tuning Say Love You, I actually was going to just reuse cielilies for the video when posting it, but I both felt that:

a) I already post ciellilies way too much (it’s attached to every synthv video I’ve put out) and

I’m not sure I could capture it again. And I don’t think I quite have with this “new” drawing / redrawing either. Though I also think my mindset and approach for this one was very different, so I wouldn’t compare them!

I’ve always admired artwork where the artist bothered to paint in the delicate little veins in flower petals, and to this day I still feel very nostalgic about ciellilies. Something about it feels classic and timeless, and deeply romantic.

I remember it taking a loooooong time and spread out over many weeks with an agonizing number of references— I really slaved over that one LMAO. I had no idea what I was doing but I liked a lot how it turned out.
