This is the latest Sketch-a-Wish voted by my lovely Patreon members for March! Featuring Jacks head-bonking gently encouraging Evangeline, hoping she'll remember *something*. One of my favorite scenes from A Curse For True Love! There are two very subtle symbolism I threw in here (one is the title referencing the scene in the book, the other, in the bg for its cultural meaning) to fuel more angst. ✨fireElmo.gif ✨ ----- Stephanie has graciously allowed me to add this artwork to my shop collection of licensed prints, already up via the links in my bio! ----- Hope you all have a pleasant week! :)

me trying to explain why a particular character isn't inherently bad or evil but they were wronged by the world as child they were stripped off of their innocence and forced to face the ugliest side of humanity and to them the only way to fix things was to become the very thing they hated the most, it was ugly and probably no one hated them more than they themselves but they thought this was the right thing to do and all they wanted in the end was to protect their loved ones

authors coming up with fairytales and myths & legends for their fantasy books will never not be something I love. It's amazing what they come up with not only for their book but also for stories in their book that somehow connect to the main character(s) and the plot.

“You wouldn’t like me as a vampire, Little Fox.” 🤭

I think I've now illustrated/papercraft every corner of this scene now. But it's such a great contrast to Night-Glimmer (shown side-by-side on the last slide). In Night-Glimmer, we're in Evangeline's perspective as Jacks carries her to a warm and safe tree-house. But turn the camera around, and from Jacks's POV, we see a dark void behind him, surrounded by the snow-tipped pine trees, a trapped feeling, stars hanging out of reach. It's still touches on the magical aspects of this scene, but frames a very different perspective! This piece is officially licensed and available in both shops (link in bio!)

whoever did the american covers for these books needs to be put down

She gasped, "You don't even like me."

"I like you right now. I like you a lot." He gently sucked her skin. “In fact, I can't think of anything I like more."

“It hurts, Jacks.” “I know, love. I’m going to take you somewhere safe.”
