An oil painting commissioned by santa_elidan from belovedranger's fic series.



Coffee for Three.
Harry drops in to the Nook for coffee early in the morning, which is why Ron and Hermione are in their pyjamas. ;~D



Close Ups-




This took me SO long to get into one image. :~P The painting is is roughly 20"x16" and I had to scan it in four pieces. Getting it to match up was ... fun. ;~\
But, on the good side, the colours came out pretty accurate! :~D

It's lovely! Beautiful, I love the homey feeling of it, the morning happy glow...

So nice as usual - they look so relaxed and comfortable, and just full of love. It's nice how your characters seem to move always within the same consistent world, making this fit easily in with the picture of Ron in the kitchen (and the one of them both there...) or Ron and Hermione outside in the rain.

I like how you put in their companions - Pig checking out his reflection in the window, and Crookshanks getting a good rub.

Harry looks like he's maybe feeling a teensy bit left out there - the pair of mugs on the windowsill just underline his single one - although Hermione seems to be playfully including him by rubbing his knee with her foot :)

Oh wow, this is really nice!

Good.

Very nice, I adore how you've made them seem more real than the actors in those terrible movies seem.

*LOVE*

Somehow, Hermione's hand on Ron's knee is the bit that gets me the most - but I love the whole thing!!!

For half a moment, I thought the pillows were legs in pajamas, and I wondered who Harry was with. *g* Charming scene---it captures friendship and comfort well.

Oh, this is gorgeous - technical talent [and there's plenty of it!] aside.

I love how comfortable they look together - I can't help noticing Ron petting Crookshanks, or Hermione's foot on Harry's knee.

I like how they have a likeness to the actors, but with differences [Hermione's hair, I'm glad, is more bushy].

Beautiful work.

[hpdm4ever.livejournal.com]

Wow this is beautiful. I can't decide which part of it I like best- everything just works together perfectly! :)

[isnani.livejournal.com]

So gorgeous! I love the smile on Harry's face you put on him. Looking at his best friends who are totally made for each other... *sighs*

Un-bloody-believable.

Some people have all the talent. *covets*

Man, if I was even a fraction of this talented, I'd die of happiness.

Wow.

This is so lovely. I really have nothing else to say about it, it's so gorgeous!

Is that Pig by the one cup?

[sjhartsfield.livejournal.com]

This is just... *GORGEOUS*. I don't know what I can say that hasn't been said already, but LORDY. SO fab. I love how you've sort of combined the looks of the movie!Trio with the descriptions from the books... they look fab. SO well done.

Oh, it's gorgeous.

[thelalaprincess.livejournal.com]

This is absolutely gorgeous. I can't find a single thing that I don't love about this painting. I love the positioning and how perfect everyone looks and the colours. Beautiful.

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Thanks! So glad you liked it. :~)

I think one thing that I love about your art so much, that I can't seem to find anywhere else, is that your characters are very original.

I've stared at your art for some time now (and loved it, btw), and I noticed that Rupert has really grown to look like your Ron. And not the other way around because your Ron has looked like this since Ron was a baby-face. So...wow. You're influencing the world, you are.

I'm thinking, if it's all right with yourself, that I may add you to squee over pictures on a more timely basis.

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

By all means, feel free to friend. :~) Please don't be offended that I don't automatically friend back, but all my art posts are public. :~)

I'm so glad to hear that you enjoy my art! :~D

[fireworkfiasco.livejournal.com]

How could people NOT enjoy your art? Isn't that, like, heretical? I mean, TALENT, people.

[bestskeptic.livejournal.com]

The best part, I think, is Harry's smirk. Looks so much like one I would make.

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Thanks! ;~)
