Description
I took the stars from my eyes and then I made a mapI knew that somehow I could find my way back
Then I heard your heart beating
You were in the darkness, too
So I stayed in the darkness with you
Whoever chose Florence + The Machine's "Cosmic Love" as the trailer music for Series 5 knew what they were doing. I only found this song a few days ago, and I've fallen in love with it, but not just because it's a beautiful song. I think it accurately reflects the bond (romantic or not) that Amy and the Doctor share, particularly as it was in Series 5.
BTW, I do want Amy and Rory to be happy together, more than anything. I just find Amy and Eleven's relationship more fascinating in general.
Pencils, watercolors (fine and opaque), calligraphy ink, and Copics (used minimally) on hot press watercolor paper.

Wow, this looks stunning. I must ask though, how did you do the stars and galaxies, they look fantastic.

Wow, I just found this again and remembered that you were the one that got me into Florence (who has and continues to be my favorite musical artist), and I didn't realize that this was a Doctor Who work at the time because at that time I didn't watch the show! How funny that it is now my favorite show, as well! Oh silly me. I guess that this is a sign that I should watch you.

That lyric is so much better applied to Eight and Charley Pollard. Now I have to go find it and listen to it. Repeatedly.

To your credit, I saw the artwork before reading your description or the title, and thought "Goddamn, it looks like something out of a Florence Welch song."
So I guess there's that. I'm not usually a fan of rainbow-bright artwork, but you balanced out the saturations nicely, and it comes off as harmonios and vibrant rather than an eyesore. Kudos. And congrats on the DD!

This is absolutely gorgeous! Would you mind if I used it as an icon on LiveJournal? I'd credit you, of course.

Haven't gotten around to watching Dr. Who yet but I know I do love what a beautiful piece of art this is.
