"...Make it look like they've found home in each others' arms."
The moment I laid eyes on @madfantasy 's Severus I thought "that's him".
Inevitably, after a lot of indecision and pondering if I should sort out my priorities instead, I gave myself a little treat and ordered my very first art comission 🥰
What I wanted was for the artwork to convey the feeling of home.
Not a place, but a person.
Absolute calmness, quietude and safety.
In this artwork, Severus is calm, his mind is tranquil, and he is comforting as much as he is being comforted.💚
I have no words to express how Mani is such a professional and kind-hearted artist. I have sent (probably too many) guidelines, body position references, art references and written requests (I was a nightmare). And you know what? Every single one of them were attended and merged into something that translates into pure tenderness.
Thank you, Mani, for everything ❤️
