I FINALLY get to share my piece for this year's March Caprice!

The theme this year was homecoming - so a mildly sleepy Ienzo being cozy somewhere within the castle of Radiant Garden felt quite appropriate. (Original intent was to give more of a waking up vibe, but now looking at this it could go either way, oops)

This is also, no joke, the first illustration I've finished since my March Caprice piece from 2024! Life has taken an opportunity to put me through some stuff but it's ultimately nice I am able to return to form with this piece. (Which is very on theme despite being entirely unintentional, however, I do appreciate that it is the case.)

Someone needs to stop me when I think "let me add a simple background" and this is what I consider a simple background lmoa

There's also some bonus details in there because I am a sucker for such things.
