Artist's Comments

WOW...it's done...after hours of work put into it, and hours of work taken from it, I think i can call it done :3

It all sparked with two things.
1: I had opened up my "Lilo and Stitch: collected Stories from the Film's Creators" again, that i had bought right when it came out.
2: :iconimaginism: was also holding a contest, to do a piece based off one of their paintings.

I saw Bobby's "Stitch" painting, and was immediately thinking, "oh my god, i have to do something like that."
So i chose to do a Stitch drawing, but...where to start?

One thing had recently popped into my mind, and thinking about Chris Sanders, and where he is now.
After leaving Disney, I wonder what Chris might think about the current state of affairs with his creation, and how Stitch has grown.
I know I myself eat up anything Stitch, but to whom or what am i giving respect? the creator? or the creation? I already know the answer to that, and I love both.
So i thought about how i could best express it, I didn't think an illustration of Stitch would do that, granted, through the fury of the storm that's how Stitch ended up.
But in reading the Lilo and Stitch book, i remember reading about how Stitch was originally a creature from the forest, alone because of his grotesque nature, with only the weather to keep him company. So i went with it...

Without further delay, i present...

STITCH! but not just any Stitch, this is the VERY FIRST Stitch. In reading the book again, reminding myself how Chris Sanders and his creation Stitch has pointed my life in a direction i never thought possible, I decided I wanted to draw something for him. A sort of "Thank You" in an "All things have to start somewhere..." sort of way <3

I rendered him a little bit differently, the image in the book that Chris had taken was a bit small, so it was hard to discern all the ins and outs of the character, but i winged it.

here is the first concept of Stitch that Chris Sanders had done in 1985

None the less, Thank You :iconimaginism: for holding the contest, inspiration came from your Stitch painting, [link]

also, Thank You Chris Sanders, :iconalohalilo:, for so much more than you may ever know

Yes, best ever! There are some other good stitch drawings out there, but you based it on the original concept of stitch. I find that fascinating. ^__^

He shall get plenty of cuddles from me. I have anti-poking powers to cuddle spikey creatures. I'd be dead just from my fiance's spikes if I didn't. :giggle:
