This was incredible. I don't have words to sufficiently tell you how brilliant your art is.. in anatomy, in style, in atmosphere -perfect and unique all at once. I could look at it all day and be impressed beyond measure. Thank you so much for sharing this

The Draco in the last panel is the absofreakinglutely most beautiful Draco I have ever seen in my life O_O Your art is breathtaking and your use of colour - incomparable <3 I bow to such talent!

Dear god. I'd nearly forgotten how breathtakingly beautiful your watercolors are. They're so elegant and vibrant yet subtle. So much sophistication and simplicity. My very favorite is how you add in these little colors which are so bold and strong and contrasting without disrupting the other more mellow elements. Simply gorgeous. Also, very tasty clever twist on the original :D!

L, your work is seriously brilliant. The Cursed Wood is eerie and sad (I think someone before me in the comments said the exact same thing!) and I can understand how it springs from a feeling that choosing to do the responsible thing is a self-imposed curse.

I also TOTALLY have empathy for the fact that real life can suck away one's energy to participate in creative endeavors. (My real life gets like that a lot.) Let me just say that your artwork is STUNNING and BRILLIANT and some of loveliest stuff I have EVER SEEN. So if you are ever feeling like you need encouragement to spend more time on it, or to feel like it's worthwhile, or whatever, please just remember that some of us think it's truly amazing.

It's always easier for other people to see/appreciate our talents than it is for us to see them ourselves.
