Description This one's an OLD one I made for 'secret santa' way back. Here is what I described it as:

Gift for: argyleheir!
Artist's Note: The prompt made me wonder if Aziraphale had ever
seen how Crowley treated his houseplants, and this sort of sprung from
there. Aziraphale's sort of going "what in the world are you doing?"
in his mind. Happy holidays, argyleheir, from your
secret artist! I hope you enjoy it (a little!)

The ironic thing is he usually uses holy water to keep his plants refreshed, something that is toxic to his kind.  Az has certainly taken note of that.   I loved that detail.

Aziraphale would probably try to save the plants. "Thwarting wiles" and all.

My favourite part was the one when Crowley's plant care system was described.

This is probably the best rendition of them I've seen. For once, Aziraphale doesn't look gay.

He's described as looking "gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide".

(I do like the painting though^^)

i love this pic! crowley looks so very evil here (yay for yellow eyes - you did a great job on them) ^^
loved the scene in the book where it is explained how he... lovingly takes care of his plants. ^^ I'm actually contemplating on adopting his kind of treatment... maybe then my plants will stop dying and finally start growing *evil smile*
...
hehe Aziraphale's look is just great. i can so imagine him saying something like: "Crowley! NO. Bad, bad demon. Drop it! ... I didn't mean it THAT way!!"

... you know what? Before I go on ranting like this I'll just show you how much I like your work by faving it

Aziraphale: What in-! Oh! I'm taking this from you for your own good!
Crowley: But I'm not good, so isn't there a point here?
Aziraphale: I simply won't stand by and watch you torture helpless plants!
Crowley: *mutter* You and your gardening...
Aziraphale: What was that?
Crowley: *snickering* Oh nothing...

I'm filled with the sudden mental picture of Aziraphale guarding the Eastern gate while Crowley prances through Eden frightening all the vegetation with a spray-bottle.

FoxxFire5 [2009-01-25 22:09:02 +0000 UTC]

Ah, it's lovely to see Crowley and Aziraphale again! I do so love your interpretations of them.

Your shading is just so very good--the coloring in general just blows one away. I love how Crowley's eyes are glowing slightly here while he terrorizes one of his plants. He looks so satisfied and smug. And I love Azi's "What, precisely, do you think that you are doing, my dear and are you sure it's necessary?" expression.

*faves*

Love this, all your artwork is brilliant, and supposing I could wish to magically duplicate someone's talents, I'd pick yours in a heartbeat. (Well, actually, I'd picks yours after Aziraphale and Crowley's powers, or maybe Adam's...but as far as drawing gos, yours for sure. ;D)
