Artist's Comments

+EDIT+

Wow... so many favorites. I want to thank everyone that's commented and faved... because really, I don't have people looking at my stuff very often. Now that school's started, I don't have time to thank everyone personally, but I hope you know that it means something to me!

I have to say, one of my favorite characters from Harry Potter is Lupin because... well... he's so nice (most times). It was depressing when

*SPOILER*


he and Tonks dies. Who's going to take care of TEDDY? Kay, so this drawing's kind of honoring them... The other reason why I drew them was because I wasn't satisfied with the movie interpretation of Lupin (or Tonks, but not as much).


Oh, and here's something interesting I found on wikipedia:

"Patronus (plural patroni) was part of the social customs of Ancient Rome, a social term that referred to the senior party in one of several social relationships.

It could refer to the protector, sponsor, or benefactor of a cliens from the lower classes or from outside Rome in a relationship called clientela. This social institution was ancient, extending into Rome's earliest society. Indeed, the Romans believed it was invented by Romulus. In the earliest periods, patricians were patrons of plebian citizens."

Thanks! They're so different it's cute. Lupin's so reserved and Tonks is so bold.

I really, really love this. I especially love how you illustrated Tonks; she looks bold with her awesome hair and piercings, but she still retains kind of a calm, motherly look in her eyes and smile. The way the Patronus curls around them is really effective, and the snow coupled with the bleak landscape helps set the mood. It feels depressing at first, but Tonks' expression calms it all down. Gorgeous work. <3
