galatheaHere is some new art that I haven't posted on LJ yet. These are pieces that I made for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ehlwyen's fabulous fanart challenge over at BuffyForums. Each of them uses a different favourite artist of mine as stylistic inspiration, so they look a bit different from my usual stuff. It's so much fun to get out of your own art-headspace and try something new, so I hope you enjoy these as much as I did creating them! ;)
Cain & Abel: This piece was inspired byuglybusiness!
Parallels are one of the many wonderful things in the SN-verse: In S2 the storyline around Dean possibly needing to kill his beloved younger sibling is paralleled in various episode plots: Gordon, killing his sister because she was turned into a vampire, Andy needing to kill his twin brother in order to stop him from murdering more people, Maggie taking the (willingly given) life of her little sister Rose, to end her lonely existence as a ghost. To the left I depicted the executed sibling murders by Andy, Gordon and Maggie, while on the right we see Dean struggle with Sam's wish to kill him and ultimately refusing to go through with the task.

So Distant: This piece was inspired by the lovelyehlwyen.
This is one of my favourite scenes from 'What Is and What Should Never Be'. Dean is desperately trying to connect to an estranged Sam, who keeps turning away from him, rejecting his touch, meeting Dean's enthusiasm with disinterest and condescendence. I used some ice-stocks and cold colours to emphasize Sam's estrangement from Dean and the 'frozen' state of their relationship. Yet, in the middle part I incorporated some warm light to show that despite their distance, there's a cordial emotional core between the brothers, that Dean could've build upon, had he chosen to stay.

You all know the drill, no posting elsewhere and no pretending it's your own. Just for private desktop use! *g* Resources as usual over at Salt'n Burn!

The last piece also damn your spot on with tones and colours in it and the scene could not have been more fabulously done I love it also so much.
Yup all are great I'm still in love with your art as if I could ever fall out with it.
