Description The magnificent Depeche Mode concert yesterday brought back my Muse, I have a rush of new ideas after weeks of silence! Fortunatelly I am on holiday, so I can paint all day if I wish.

I love them

Listening to their lyrics I could not help myself thinking of Snape.

This particular painting was inspired by their song Precious.
"..we always try to share /The tenderest of care /Now look what we have put You through.../Things get damaged/Things get broken...

...I am still totally overwhelmed with the concert! It was raining, but we all danced and sang and enjoy their performance.



Credits:
- Snape, Draco and Narcissa belongs to J.K. Rowling
- the painting was inspired by the book: Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince
- Draco was inspired (not copied) by the photo of a very talented photographer [link]

Now watching this link with the Unbreakable Vow scene in the end, I have to tell you, I have a total different idea of the scene as the movie has, but no problem [link]

That's nice you have a total different idea of the scene .
I had imagined it differently too.
True, it isn't a problem .
I've seen the link too, it was wonderful to watch .

Nice work with the hands; I like the background design with Draco. I like the sort of watercolor wash on Narcissa's face, it looks as if she's been crying.

ps. Now *THAT's* a NOSE.

Thank you I had to spare some time and practise hands as I am not too good drawing them I hope one day I can paint the exact hands and fingers I have on my mind. I think Snape does not have this beautiful hand, because brewing potions, dealing with poisons, berries, fluids and all kinds of chemistry, using knives, razors etc must have the effect. I think his fingers - in real - should have scars, the colour should be kind of greenish-grey at the top at least. I have written it so well in my novel in 2004, but could never give it back in my paintings.

joeyv7 In reply to Expell-HUN [2009-06-28 21:41:06 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, interesting point. I can see how he should have some scars. And I wouldn't be surprised to see the nails bitten to the quick, in his younger years. Not as an adult, though . . . too guarded for that tell - tale sign

Expell-HUN In reply to joeyv7 [2009-06-30 13:52:37 +0000 UTC]

joeyv7 In reply to Expell-HUN [2009-06-30 14:58:46 +0000 UTC]

Awesome!! Sure, glad I could help.
I think the stress manifested itself in his later life in his thinness; like he was being consumed from within. Snape actually enjoying food - I can't see it, for some reason. But that's just me

joeyv7 In reply to Expell-HUN [2009-07-01 19:33:11 +0000 UTC]

. . . with a really good champagne, where he totally ignores the nude furniture and promises me the chocolate if I come a bit closer? And candles, right, with sensuous yet cerebral music playing softly, in a minor key?

No, not at all.

Köszi, CSK! Úgy gondoltam, hogy Nárcisz depresszióját max a zilált haj és az elkenődött szemfesték jelezheti az arckifejezésén kívül, nem hiszem, hogy van csíkos melegítője meg kinyúlt trikója otthon, amiben más normális ember az egereket itatja

Még tart az új játék varázsa Nagyon jó ez a digitális technika, csak mivel korlátlanul bármit bármikor kijavíthatsz, mikrorészeken elszöszölhetsz, a végtelenségig tart, míg az ember befejez egyet, de most már nem leszek szívbajos

I am happy you like him in the background, I had a strong feeling, an urge to put Draco there instead of painting books there for example

This is PERFECT!!!! I love this scene, I LOVE your Narcissa, I love how you did the composition with Draco in the background, I love your Severus, of course , what it all expresses and, last but not least: I have seen some wonderful renderings of this scene already, but yours, for me, is the most magnificent one.
Yes, and this wasn't a particlulary intelligent comment, but I am too much in awe to think.

Thank-you God for Depeche Mode if they brought back your Muse!

This is gorgeous. This is my favorite chapter of all the books, and not enough people pain this scene.

I love the phantom of Draco in the background. Your Snape is fantastic, as always, and I'm always interested in seeing people's depictions of Narcissa. She is wonderful here.

Thank you, dearest! THis is a chapter I have examined a couple of times to understand what could have happened. I am glad for the tiny, not that significant details, too... I loved to see HIM in his living room, ordering wine, being polite and calm with the Black sisters (each too complicated and hard to handle...)
