One of the panels from my Labyrinth art meme -- you got cheated! ;D
This is my favorite scene in Labyrinth. (Me, and like, every other girl who watches it) It kills me how Jareth spends the movie up to then taunting and eluding her, making her quest pretty miserable. She's looking for him in the crowd of masqueraders and he brushes past her, laughs at her, teases her, and then suddenly there she is right in front of him, and she's all he wants. He's completely owned by her. It's that beautiful ballet of power. So romantic it makes my head swim.
I spent more time on this one than the other panels, and it's pretty, I think. The dark side of Sarah's face gave me hell, though. She's so impossibly beautiful that I can never get her right. But I think I did a pretty good job on Jareth.

awesome i dont care if her performance was painful to watch she was the best part about this movie, (plus she did get better with age as an actress and in looks)
I found this piece of art years ago, in high school, and printed it out. It's been hanging in my old bedroom at my mom's house for years, and I never knew where it was from until now. I'm so glad I found this!
They are my ultimate OTP...and I don't care if that's lame! Thank you for making my night nay my week with this drawing! It's brilliant and beautifully colored!
I'm ashamed to say I just watched this movie for the first time two days ago, but I am NOT ashamed to say that since then I've fallen hopelessly in love with it! The emotions on their faces are priceless, and you're totally right about their shift in power--for the first time in his life, the Goblin King struck dumb? And a distracted Sarah just makes the portrait. Wonderful!
For some odd reason, I can see this as a "later in life" image...maybe at a ball in the early years of their marriage where she decides to wear her favorite ball gown?
I might get the impression that their children are off dancing with goblins while the adults enjoy the party and, like any mother, Sarah is worried about little things. Maybe Jareth is calming her and laughing a bit at her un-needed worry before drawing her into the dance?
I love it!I am a big fan of this film!
Realy beautiful

I blame Josh Groban's Awake for this comment...
