Description I did this for the masked_ball LJ community ([link] ) and had a load of fun doing it.

The prompt was:

Erik looking into a trifold mirror, with three separate reflections- what he actually looks like, what he *thinks* he looks like, and what he looks like on the inside (inner beauty, that kind of thing.)

I added that I leave it up to the viewer to decide which is which.

It's so nice to make new Phantom art.


If you like this, please consider commissioning me. [link]

I don't normally comment on artwork I favorite on here (because I'm just too lazy), but yours was such an inspirational and unique piece of phanart, that I had to compliment you. It's one of those types of art that makes you stop and think. Please keep up the excellent work, I can't wait for more of your Leroux phanart.

MapleRock88 [2011-02-26 00:17:20 +0000 UTC]

very interesting especially since i think that Erik may have suffered from multiple personality syndrome
he refers to himself in the third person and blames the "siren" which is of course really him
and it good art

I love how this pic/print appears almost "ghostly" in nature - the effect is AMAZING!!

(Hope you don't mind if I add it to my "Favourites"..? )

If one were to separate the angel and the reaper as one being the truth and the other his skewed self perception, assuming we're going by Leroux-canon, then Erik's self-deprecating nature makes it a bit obvious. I like to think that they're both his true inner self, a representation of the extremes he can reach instantaneously and his duality as a character.

LaRosaAzul [2009-09-25 22:54:59 +0000 UTC]

You're just awesome! It might sound a bit macabre but I like Erik's image of himself (Death-thingy with the punjab) the most. You really did a nice job on those hands. Brava!

Thank you very much. I can't take credit for the concept though, as it was a prompt over at the masked_ball community on LJ [link] .

Beautiful perspective. I love it.
