the last ones to leave  
Having to replace black watercolor with black acrylic... is a bitch.

AU scene. the idea just hit me.








it scanned too yellow, so it looks very different to the original.
ps. i don't remember if james and lily had separate tombstones or not. i was going to check in my carpetbook but i lost the file password, orz.

now, i'm off to play some mario party... love you all. ♥

Beautiful, and I adore the tree on the left. Also in the thumbnail the tombstone actually looks like someone standing in the background XP

Oh wow, this is gorgeous! I love their expressions of grief, the trees in the backround... it's all beautiful! *saves to del.icio.us account* :D

Happy Christmas!

Gorgeous. Love the colours - I think the scanning too yellow seems to have worked for you (not that the pic wouldn't have been fab anyway, of course!) :)

This is beautiful, and so sad. Sirius especially looks.... broken, somehow. (Also, on a more frivolous note, I love his hair!)

It makes me so sad for them, and yet, how much worse must it have been for Remus facing this alone? At least here they have each other.

This is really stunning - I got a set of paints (watercolours, acrylics and oils) for Christmas, and I've been thinking that I'm too scared to try them out because I'm no good at art, but you've really inspired me to have a go!

a lot of people are scared of watercolors, but i never found them hard to use. just get some nice sturdy paper and try them out until you get used to them. :) the acrylics are a bit trickier, since they dry faster. have fun!

and thank you. :)

Oh, that is lovely! The yellow works in its own way, too. It feels so very... November!

Thank you back! It's from art by a favourite illustrator of mine, the late Trina S Hyman.

Watercolors are perfect for this; the background is beautiful, very atmospheric. Mad love for Sirius' expression.
