Artist's Comments

You were so proud, Jareth. But the right one will bring you to your knees.

Like a mystery of Harris Burdick, I'm going to leave the story up to you.

Like a million years ago, when I was coming up on 500,000 pageviews, I took a poll to see which fandom I should service for my thank-you drawing. Labyrinth won out, which was kind of a surprise. I started this one but just couldn't make it work. I kept picking it up and tossing it aside for months. Well, I recently hit 600K, so I thought I should get off my can and finish this. And you know, it turned out really nicely, I think. I'm really satisfied with it. One of those rare examples of something turning out exactly the way I saw it in my head.

God, I miss the snow.

Some beautiful short stories, inspired by this drawing:
+ To Forgive Is Divine by Lady-Cobweb
+ Sea Whispers by crimsonspiral

materials: pencil on bristol
music: David Gray, "Flame Turns Blue"

fnargh you found my weakness... sexy sexy david bowie as sexy sexy goblin king. ^_^ I really loe the gentleness of the piece though (aside from Jareth ((drools))) And the way the white makes it look like they have halo's.

I neer thought she deserved his awesomeness.. so if you know.. you could re do this with ME in there *shifty eyes* that would be uhhhh you know ... awesome!

Don't hate me because I'm different.... Love me because I haven't clamped onto your head and sucked the brains out.

I had a dream similar to this once... Was a long time ago though...

This is beautiful Lily. Really beautiful. The ache and the inner warmth contrasts wonderfully with the cold feel of the clothes and scenery.

Thank you! I was overwhelmed when I hit a measly(!) 100K, and I was like, never will I ever get to 500K. Not ever. Nhur. :D

Sister, your weakness is in good company.

Ha! I'm picturing your little caramelldansen girl in the forest with Jareth...

Thank you, my brother. You know, every time I draw some man losing it for a girl, you know, helpless to her, I think of you. Your quest to lose yourself. :) It's very endearing.

Aw, I hate to say it, but I probably won't draw anything Labyrinth-related again. But there are a ton of extremely talented Labyrinth fan artists who are in no mood to stop anytime soon. :)
