Thinking about this: this piece would make an absolutely wonderful print/poster, and I'd love to own one.

Does that thought make you eager or nervous, O Secret Artist? ;]

This...is pretty much amazing. The black and whites are so incredible, esp. the top-left, so deep in shadow and really rich. Just gorgeous, truly. And I'm TOTALLY with Blueeyedtigress--the middle looks JUST like a hobbit livingroom! Though that's possibly just because it's a circular inset, but it's a good thing in any case, so snug and comfy. ^_^ Poor dear Crowley...he just can't catch a break.

Gawd, the painting is just gorgeous. The wrinkles in Aziraphale's shirt...their hands...just beautiful.

I second Blueeyedtigress--we need prints!! ^_^

Whoops, sorry, didn't really mean to reply to you, dear...though I quote you twice, so I suppose that's why I did it...my bad. Please excuse. ^_^

I’m happy that you like it! I tried to use pencils of different strengths (from 8B to 4H) to give the pictures more depth. And when it comes to Crowley, I was just trying to make him look vulnerable. And he did get some gingerbread and tea, too, although I’m not quite sure how well that can be discerned from the central image.

Thank you for your comment!

Nervous, but then, it doesn’t take much to make me nervous.

The series of pictures started out as an idea for a post card, actually. Then I wanted to add some things and realised that a post card was just way too small for everything to fit in. I think the idea of a poster did cross my mind at some point, although I never gave it that much thought.

But, since I don’t know all that much about prints and posters, and this is Rinnington’s gift, anyway, I think I’ll leave the matter lie for now. :)
