Description "DON´T LET IT WORRY YOU.IT´S ME.I´M EXTREMELY FAMOUS!!!"


This is a quick work I did to celebrate Rupert´s birthday at my LJ.I used a different technique by this time, pastels.I made it in a really few time, and the idea of it came to me from one of my favs movies, "Almost Famous".

I could say a lot about this movie (better if it was on my mother language) but maybe, what I like most on it, is the way it shows the idol and the fan sides and that, although we are in differents places in front of world´s eyes, how we need and give ourselves to each others and at the end we are all humans, with the same needs, fears...

I was totally in "Almost Famous" mood, listening Elton John´s "Tiny Dancer", when I saw the HP movie trio "Walk of Fame" ceremony photos and video.And there, was so clear for me, seeing their interaction with each other and the public, Daniel jumping more than ever,Emma laughing and Rupert shaking hands, "They are so equal as the people on the other side of the line, but they aren´t there anymore a long time,and by this moment, with the printings in the cement, this is forever!"

So, the idea of this drawing came to me.And it was funny to see how Ron´s last lines, that I read days after the happening, fit it so well!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RUPERT!!!!!

I am not talented... I just consider myself a passionate fan of HP books who happens to love art too. My illustrations are kids stuff compared to yours or the artists I love... but I don´t mind. I like doing them and I do them for the fun of it. I just feel like if I don´t do this, I will not be able to keep it all inside myself... I have to let it out somehow, if you undestand me... I also think that a lot talented artists deserve recognition for their work, their passion and their talent!

I am an HP nerd... that´s all!!!

lillywmw In reply to Veronika-Art [2007-08-27 11:45:40 +0000 UTC]

So, I must recognize that yes you are talented and have a lot of passion in what you do!!And don´t be shy to admited!Your Snape´s drawings and videos are so beautiful and we can see the love you have for everyone that you put there seeing the way you treated the images and all the story behind your creation, like the music you choose and all the explanation on the side !

And I do this for fun too!!Sometimes is strange to think how the man loose during his life, the happiness of express himself by the drawings, one of our first pleasures when we´re child!
