Description
His skin, white despite the faint flush from yesterday's hunting trip, literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface. He lay perfectly still in the grass, his shirt open over his sculpted, incandescent chest, his scintillating arms bare. His glistening, pale lavender lids were shut, though of course he didn't sleep. (...)
I would have liked to lie back, as he did, and let the sun warm my face. But I stayed curled up, my chin resting on my knees, unwilling to take my eyes off him. (...)
Hesitantly, always afraid, even now, that he would disappear like a mirage, too beautiful to be real... hesitantly, I reached out one finger and stroked the back of his shimmering hand, where it lay within my reach.

Twilight, by Stephenie Meyer
Chapter 13, Confessions


Wow, this is the first "complete" illustration I've ever done! I didn't think I would be able to get the background right, but it didn't turn out too bad so yay! I only wish I could make Edward just half as gorgeous as I imagine him though...

This may be a little odd but I was struck dumb by the details of the grass. I couldn't imagine how long it must have taken you just to do that part. I love the white shine off Edward's skin. It's very beautiful. All in all this was wonderfully drawn.

This is AMAZING! Did you get the sparkling effect from the New Moon movie or the Twilight movie? 'Cause i just saw both this week!

I love it! Great work, Lots of detail, but wasn't she wearing a white shirt like his?
They wore identical clothing.

"But Bella is too dark!" It's called shading! Edward is in the sunlight and Bella is in the shade of the trees.

Twilight kiddies. Geez. Just appreciate good art.

I really adore the way you did Edward in this picture. I think he's different here than in all your other portraits. There's something about his face that is familiar and perfect. :]

Can I be a critic real quick? I hope you don't mind and I'm not being mean. Especially sinc you're so much better then me but thats not the point. What I want to say is:
I love it. I truly do but I have to say you made some mistakes.
1) Bella's skin looks way to tanned.
2) Edward's hair is to blonde. He has bronze hair which is more of a orangey red-ish color.

ONCE AGAIN I'M NOT DISSING YOUR WORK I LOVE IT!!! Just felt that you should know that.

Beautiful work. Very nice interpretation of my favorite scene from Twilight. In my mind Edward will always have dark hair... (even though the books describe him as the blondie he is.) You made him so pretty.

I know how you feel, it's really hard to choose. Like right now I think I'm gonna try to draw the restaurant scene in Port Angeles but I can't decide which one after that, there are so many!! Like, in Eclipse, when Bella tries to have sex with Edward, or at the end of Eclipse when it's Edward who tries, or the conversation between Edward and Jacob in the tent (I LOVED that one), or in New Moon Edward stepping into the sun in Volterra... There are just way too many! lol!!
