Artist's Comments

If you're gone, I can still hear your voice
Little voids making an empty noise
Powerless, I need to rest awhile
You were in delicate arms, not mine

But out of the black pools
I've risen up
I've risen up above
'Cause I still love you
I've risen up
I've risen up above


Charlotte Martin - Under The Gravel Skies
------------------------------------------------------------------


It's sooo overdone lately, but since many of you asked so kindly, I have finished the Mirror of Erised illustration^-^. Technically something a bit different again.

I know that many of you would have their own vision of it, but for the purpose of the composition and the idea in my head I chose Lily to be alone in the mirror.
And just ignore the awkward floor - Hogwarts is a weird place and you know it:D
Oh, and for everyone who has doubts about Lily's head and arm - her legs don't end with the mirror frame, so her anatomy is fine, besides she's not real, but just a projection.

Hope you will like it^-^

Will you walk into my parlour? said the spider to the fly
Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy,
The way into my parlour is up a winding stair,
And I've a many curious things to shew when you are there.

I don't care that it's "overdone"! The idea is brilliant, and every artist's rendition is so original and keeps the books alive with new flavour and interpretation!

This image is beautifully tragic. I love the colours you used. Absolutely in love with it. Good work.

Was there an actual scene of Snape and the mirror that i just forgot about... or do just so many people have this idea?

I think this is one of the better executed drawings of this idea tho.

It's beautiful... you captured the desire perfectly.

very nice! I love Snape's pose, its says so much about how he feels!
I also think that Snape would not necessarily see himself with Lily, but just Lily. I think that, after she died, the only thing he really wanted was her back. Not be with her, he's not that selfish. Just Lily, alive and smiling.

i love you
