Alrighty this one definetly needs an explanation. Those of you who may be fans of Naruto or NOIR may be confused. I would be too. Normally I don't pair up couples who don't exist (in this case not even in the same dimension!) But I have a friend who absolutely looooooves Gaara from Naruto. I happened to be a big fan of Chloe from the anime NOIR. One day we were talking about the two and noticed how similar they are (in certain silly ways). Both silent killers, basically corrupted as children, and represent the darker path that the main character could have taken. Though Chloe is a relatively happy girl and Gaara is a sourpuss (a bit of an understatement), we still think that it would only add to the relationship (opposites attract, right?). Anyway, we somehow decided that these two would make a good pair. No I don't think Gaara as a character would ever be able to handle a relationship with any girl...ever, and Chloe, well, Chloe is somewhat of a lesbian (well sort of, watch the show and you'll understand all that). But who cares!! I can dream, can't I? ^^

On a side note, we didn't think 12 year old Gaara would be terribly interested in this sort of thing. So I went with the current manga version of Gaara in which as many of you know he is aged 3 years. If you know the rest of the details, you understand why I have him in his dark trench coat-ish type thing.

Yet again done in a #2 pencil which is all I ever use. I'm still getting used to drawing anatomy, portraits are usually more my thing. So ah' tried me best. I think this one was done mostly during english class...horray for barely graduating!!
