Artist's Comments

Acrylic painting. Original size: 600mm x 900mm.

Spike!

I did this one after the Buffy finale, but before he started on Angel. Kind of a transitional thing, rising from the ashes of one confrontation and into another.
I tried for a sepia type of feel for the the most part, then went darker with the Angel segment. The only real colour is the blue of his eyes.

The beginning of love is to let those we love
be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them
to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only
the reflection of ourselves we find in them.

Wow. I can tell a lot of work and effort went into this and I think it definitely deserves a lot of faves and nice comments. :)

And sorry, but I suck at commenting.

Wow, that's... absolutely magnificent. There's not much else to describe it with besides simply magnificent.

I love the way you had the piece transition from one bit to another, I could never paint for the life of me.
