Re: A Journey

Don't worry about the late reply! I know that work and RL can sometimes hit us over the head and leave us blind with pain, so don't worry. I'm so happy to hear from you, and I hope that you are doing fine, in spite of your huge workload.

I find it amazing that you took so many different approaches until you found the one that worked for you. The result was so beautiful - but you know how much I love the art you created for my drabble.

I have to tell you that I first wrote this drabble in an attempt for the "Back to School" Fest at hd_inspired and then gave it up because it was too dreamlike. I still liked it a lot, but it was taking me too far away from what the prompter had wished for. When hd_fanart made their call for prompts, I submitted one prompt in each format. I never thought about how hard or easy the prompt would be. And I'm thrilled that you took up the challenge.

Those hands had my mind spinning, I tell you! It took me a while to understand the perspective of Draco's hands - which was from Harry's perspective, not Draco's. Because when I held my hands before me with the palms upwards, the thumbs pointed outwards - I really had to think hard to work it out. Lol. And after that, I took a closer look at the old woman's hands and saw that you in fact had just drawn the left hand. I was so proud when I figured that out. :-)

Thank you so much for your kind offer to share the prints! Of course, I would love to have the prints of all four parts. I wonder if 30 x 30 cm will be big enough to keep all the beautiful details. If you think that a bigger print will be better, please tell me. I don't mind paying a bit more, because I really want this to be beautiful. If you think that 30 x 30 is fine, that's how we are going to do it. You're the expert! :-D

And now I will first friend you and then go to bed. Long day tomorrow.
