Drawing Wookieepedian’s Profile Pictures: Ajjviolin96
After skipping a week to gather myself, I drew @Ajjviolin96 who, until a few hours ago, chose the fiddler on the roof to represent her!
Aí Yaí Yaí, where do I begin? From when I first started this series, I had always wanted to draw AJJ’s pfp, but I knew that I would most certainly fail due to the sky and my lack of skill using color, let alone a picture whose color is so important, and my fear kinda came to be a reality. It’s not horrendous, but I wish I could have done better. I also wished that I had done better with the fiddler, himself, but it is what it is. On the bright side, this drawing, overall went better than expected. Since the color wasn’t going to be perfect, I decided to be more expressive with the style of sky that I did rather than try to copy the original exactly and I’m pretty proud of what became of that idea.
I can still recall my first encounter with AJJ. I was in a bit of an Ahsoka phase and had put up a post asking this community when Ahsoka became a favorite character for them, and there, AJJ linked her fateful essay on Ahsoka. I was surprised and honored that someone would share such an extensive paper with me, and, as a matter of fact, it was the first Star Wars essay I had read, and it later inspired me to write essays of my own. AJJ’s essay introduced me to her in a way, and shortly later, I made another post and, lo and behold, AJ commented on it and it hit me hard. She wrote something that made me start to think further about Anakin and about his problems and about my problems. And it has lead me to where I am now, and it’s an interesting place to be. I have come far, but have a lot to learn and, surely, a long winding path that goes deeper still. It is beyond unbelievably incredible that, I would make those insignificant posts, AJ to say those words, and for me to have been found something that is the greatest thing I could possibly find: God.
God used you in my life, AJ, and it’s ridiculous that my crummy drawing that I tried so hard on is the only way I can think of to say thank you.

Thank you guys for sticking with this series for its entirety! I’m certainly not saying that this is going to be the end of the series, but I have finished what I set out to do, and, as of right now, don’t have any more pfps planned. I may draw more in the future, we’ll just have to see.
Thanks again, guys!
May the Force Be With Us
