Happy Holidays, sporkfosterfan!

[goe_mod]

To my recipient, sporkfosterfan: I intended to write a long and complex fic that addressed at least two of your prompts. However, I fell ill before I was able to finish it, and thus did not have the time or energy to do the story justice. This artwork addresses your third prompt, instead, representing Crowley and Aziraphale in the Yin Yang symbol. Please enjoy!

What a wonderful realisation of that prompt!
I love that Crowley is the white part and Aziraphale the black, like the book covers! :D
I also really like Crowley with freckles! ^-^

Thanks for the comment! I didn't even think of the book covers when I made this. Typical of me to add extra meaning accidentally. :D

Ahhhhhh, this is so cool! I love aziraphale's eye, and I love the dichotomy with plants/fire (growth/destruction) that you've got in there too.

Thank you! When I remembered that art was also an option, I immediately decided I had to do something with parallels and dichotomy, I'm glad that came through well!

Very cool! I like Crowley's freckles.

[eddiethemediocre]

Thanks! I thought the freckles were a nice touch.

Hello! Sporkfosterfan here.

This is awesome! Thanks for the amazing artwork. I love the contrasting colors, and as said earlier, how the background colors correspond with their book covers. I wouldn’t have thought of using their eyes for the Yin-Yang dots, it works really well.

Thanks again!

I'm glad you like it! I wanted to explore their parallel but similar natures, and using their eyes as counterpoints seemed a good way to do that. You're very welcome.

Wonderful! Love the freckles

[eddiethemediocre]

Everyone seems to be a fan of the freckles! I'm glad I added them.

[petimetrek]

Very well done! I love how the ying/yang explain theirs relationship and personality really well. They are very different but they complement and need each other.

[sous_le_saule]

Nice use of their eyes! And Crowley's freckles are cute.

[eddiethemediocre]

*taking notes* People like freckles and imagery.

This is gorgeous, and I love how you used their eyes! Beautiful work.

[eddiethemediocre]

Thank you so much!

This is such a stark, striking piece of artwork! It seems to me that the prompt you worked with might even have been better suited to art than to fic all along. So sorry to hear you were sick, secret creator <3 I hope you're on the mend.

Re: From irisbleufic:

I was going to make a fic out of one or two of the other prompts, but once that wasn't possible, this one leapt out as the best candidate for a piece of last minute artwork. This is a piece about contrast, but also comparison. Yin and Yang, opposite but conjoined.

[ladylier]

Wow!! amazing art!! I love the flaming sword and the vines in their sides, and I love their eyes, and how they are the opposite and complete each other.
Happy Holidays!!

[eddiethemediocre]

Thank you, and happy (belated) holidays to you as well! I'm glad the imagery is clear and well-received!

[alumi]

this is very cool!
especially love their eyes! both the colours, and how they can be looked at as the bright/dark spots in the dark/bright regions, respectively.
and it's a very pretty plant with all the colour transitions. stellar job!
also, i hope you've managed to recover quickly!

[eddiethemediocre]

Thank you for your comment! This is one of the few pieces of art that turned out just like I wanted it. From the comments I've been getting, the imagery worked out just like intended!
