Title: "He said, She said"
Characters: Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy
Rating: R (not worksafe)
Media: ink and watercolor
Notes: Originally I did this pair for the "We're not just sitting around eating bon-bons" challenge over at andropotterist, but I decided after completeing them that they were both too feminine, thus tipping the scale out of the traditional ( Read more... )

Wow...I just found your art but I've been reading your story on ff.net and I must say you're really good at both. I would love it if you added me as a friend because I'll add you.

Thank you so much, I'm really glad you like them ^-^ I went ahead and friended you back, it's nice to meet you!

HOOOMG!! I LOVE ANDROGYNY!! ... spelling?

Such an awesome word... I remember talking about that in Venice with my friend (Venice!! :O)

Lovely drawings... :D

Hehehe, glad you like! *obsessed with androgyny*

See? You are a totally awesome artist! WAY better than my stuff. Man, if you were to take a look at my LJ right now, you'd see how I feel about my art...*grumbles in disgust* I wish I could draw like you.

Yay for angst! It sucks when you have it, but it's always fun to talk about it afterwards!

*Hugs*

Hmm, well I looked at your journal and saw art related angst, but no art. Do you have anything scanned ( ... )

caittails June 21 2005, 12:50:42 UTC

Ah, I don't have a scanner, and I even if I did, I'm not allowed to scan anything and put it on the internet.

I've actually had people tell me to do just what you've told me, and I've found that it doesn't help me at all. I have a horrible self-esteem, it's almost inexistant, and I can't feel proud about anything.

I really don't like drawing, either. It just comes so natural to my friends that I feel I should be able to do something at least HALFWAY well, but everytime I see anything I make, I just want to puke. My therapist says I need to find something that boosts my self-esteem, but so far, I haven't found anything. So much for shrinks, huh?

xxroguexheartxx June 21 2005, 13:05:03 UTC

Don't take anything I'm about to say wrong, ok? Speaking from my own personal battles with self esteem issues, it's all in your head. Shrinks are stupid and pointless, that can't help you at all. You don't like drawing? Then don't. If you want art try watercolor, acrylic, oil, do landscapes or abstracts. If art isn't you think there's writing, and music and dancing. It isn't about being perfect either, it's about enjoying what you're doing. All of what I'm saying probably sounds stupid and meaningless to you though, because that's the mindest you're in right now. You are setting yourself up to fail at everything and be miserable, whether you know it or not. Before you can ever create anything beatiful you have let that beauty become a part of you, right now you're too full of negative energy, it blocks all your creative outlets. You can't love anything you do unless you at least like yourself. It's an ongoing battle that I have myself, and trust me, sometimes there will be days, weeks, even months where I'm so full of slef loathing ( ... )

Oh mi gosh eye surgery=scary! I hope it went well (it happenning on my birthday=good luck?).

When I first saw Harry I thought, 'dude, it's, like, Harriet', but then I look down and see that he is...indeed endowed with what his papa gave him. *nods*
Draco is just sexy. Like...nyuerghs.

I actually came across this when reading your story, "My Hero", which is SO good so far (I'm on chapter 20), and I must say I really, really enjoy your art! Your people are beautiful, and I <3 almond-shaped, androgynous boyzzzzz...

I've friended you, would you befriend me? Oh man I hope this is still active and all and your surgery went well! A sudden bout of worry just hit me. o.o;;

xxroguexheartxx June 28 2005, 11:30:22 UTC

Lol... thank you! I'm so glad you like them. Indeed, I felt Harry had crossed the line from androgyny into flat out gender-change, so decided to add a little something special ;) But yes, effeminate boys in corsets are one of my biggest obsessions ^-^

I'm also glad to hear you're enjoying 'My Hero', and thank you for your concern about my eye surgery, it went very well. I've got my one-week check up tomorrow, and after that I should be able to get back to life as per usual (a week without make-up has been absolute torture!)

Of course I'll friend you back! ^-^

prissyscilla June 28 2005, 18:29:53 UTC

Hurrah! I don't know why I flinched so badly when I heard (err, read) the word surgery, but I'm glad it went well!

Don't worry about makeup, I'm sure it causes cancer. *twitch* haha

By the way *whispers* I'm Siren Duveil on ff.net, so when you start receiving a buttload of reviews on different chapters stating (maybe) slightly incoherent stuff, you'll know who it is. :]

xxroguexheartxx June 28 2005, 19:40:11 UTC

Oh! I remember, you made the Aladin comment about de javu, right? That gave me the best mental image ever of Harry dressed in an aqua harem outfit, all shy and blushing while Draco tries to seduce him into a "magic carpet ride" *ahem*. If I get a chance, I need to illustrate that!

And if make up causes cancer, well, I'll die young and beautiful!!
