Artist's notes: I figure this steers pretty clear of stereotypical 'angel and demon, halo and pitchfork' roles since I am not particularly a fan of those either? Also, if I am allowed to link to music I would like to, since it plays a rather integral role in the art-making process for me: link. I hope you enjoy!

I love the pensive quiet you give them, under a frosty night sky with a background of fir woods and falling leaves, sharing a hot cup (yes, from a duck thermos, so VERY Aziraphale. It's so apt for the kind of elliptical narrative and keenly observed quiet moments in Irisbleu's fiction.

A very nice way to kick off the festivities. I also applaud the amount of attention and care you gave this piece, full of detail and texture.

Getting that 'pensive quiet' in their expressions was admittedly the hardest part of this, but after I got what I wanted in the sketch (and was able to ink them without making a mess of everything), I knew everything else was going to be cake compared to it. So really, thank you for noticing/mentioning that.
