Art Rec: Caught in Your Glow (Harry/Draco)

[birdsofshore]

WOW, I was so excited to see this gorgeous piece of art at mini_fest yesterday. I was up far too late, and basically ended up dribbling all over the comments page, but it was such a great surprise to see someone had made art from my prompt, and such beautiful art too. ♥

Title: "Caught in Your Glow"
Artist: ???
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco
Prompt: Prompt:
"My candle burns at both ends
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends -
It gives a lovely light." - from a poem submitted by birdsofshore
Art Medium: Photoshop CS6
Rating: PG

I have seen this artist's work before and always LOVED her Harry, with his gorgeous, strong, masculine profile, but I don't think I have ever seen her draw this pairing before. Draco has an equally powerful face, and I love the challenging look they are exchanging. The poem I used for the prompt, is by a favourite poet of mine, Edna St. Vincent Millay. I woke up one morning with the lines running through my head and one of those weird obsessive fangirl feelings that it was connected to Harry / Draco somehow. I love the way the artist has interpreted the poem. ♥ Go and see it!

I just saw it and it's beautiful. I haven't been following the mini_fest >.< but I want to so bad, I have my eye on several fics that I have on my 'to read' folder. ^^

Thank you for the rec.

You deserve such great art for such a great prompt! I love that poem too. I think Edna would approve, she had both men and women lovers. Now I have "We were very tired, we were very merry, we had gone back and forth all night on the ferry" on my mind - "We gave her the apples, we gave her the pears, we gave her all our money but our subway fares." A good poem for holiday spirit.
