Gift Art for Schemingreader!

As thanks for a very cute and funny (and prony) gift fic that [livejournal.com profile] schemingreader wrote for me, featuring Snape and Neville, I told her that I would draw her anything she requested.

She wanted a scene from her story Carthage Any scene where Remus is a wolf.

I learned three things while painting this.
1) I suck a watercolour paints
2) I suck at painting wolves
3) Snape has a very teeny bed. :D



I hope you like it hon, and please forgive my lack of watercolour skillz. I actually painted this scene THREE times, and this one was by far, the best!

*smooches* and happy .... whatever Jewish holiday it is right now ...I do read your posts, I just have a shitty memory!

1) no you don't
2) no you don't
3) I know from experience that large furry creatures make your bed SEEM that small, so it's all good.

Oh God, you are sooo right about #3! I used to share a bed with two dogs, a cat and my husband! When I got pregnant we ran out and bought a king sized bed, because there was NO WAY anything would fit in there!

Now, sadly, me and hubby only share the bed with two cats, as the those two dogs have passed on, and our new dogs have been trained to sleep elsewhere. The kids join us from time to time, but not all night/every night. (thank god!)

Thanks for the sweet comments!

Aw, what a cute pic! Is that you as a kid? :D And what a beautiful samoyed! My neighbours used to have one, and I just loved him!

yup! that's me way back in the 80s, lol. Love the Strawberry Shortcake wallpaper :-D

We've had Samoyeds since forever (ie: 1982 when my dad married my step-mom). This is Dasher, who was not even fully grown yet. Right now my parents' just have one female plus two Pomeranians that joined the family when my step-mom hit middle age and got sick of being constantly beaten up by hyper gigantic dogs, lol.

My boy was samoyed, husky, malamute and my mom said he had some wolf but I hope that wasn't true.

Wow! Oh wow! Thank you so much. It's just perfect and beautiful. Snape's hair, all shiny and oily! The wolf is such a beauty and they are so cuddly--just like in the story!Ooooh thank you!

Also: Happy Easter!

(Still Passover. I think I have to go make some more exciting morsels of matzah meal...)

Thanks! I"m glad you liked it! I seriously drew it three times, because I was unhappy with the first two. At least I improved! ;^)

Perhaps I'll stick with the Crayons from now on. :D

Happy Passover. (or is it merry? Joyous? spayshul?) :D :D

Thanks hon! I'm full of chocolate right now. (not that you're surprised.)

I hope you're suffering from a full-on sugar high too! :D

I like the watercolor effect! Remus is super-cute and Snape looks so tender and sweet.

Thanks! I found the watercolours very hard to work with. They are very unforgiving! *hugs eraser* :D

Awww, so lovely! Wolfy looks like a dog I used to have! *gives Snape a bigger bed*
Hehe
It's Passover! Well, utnil tomorrow. I can finally have bread...mmmm bread.

[identity profile] tripperfunster.livejournal.com 2007-04-16 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Oh man! I just couldn't live without bread! Well, I guess you could load up on pasta instead! ;D

[identity profile] witherwings7.livejournal.com 2007-04-16 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, pasta isn't allowed either!
