Description When I first saw that there were Phantom Phan clubs here on DA I assumed that the first thing I'd turn in would be something with the Phantom in it, not Christine, but I kept putting it off for commissions and convention work... but this just sort of came out of left field... I just stayed up the whole night making it because I couldn't sleep and I was feeling that really HEAVY sort of feeling again that I've been feeling alot lately.. so instead of just wasting a bunch of time crying and wallowing in tortured thoughts I drew this instead.

This part of the story doesn't seem to be touched on as much by phans... the Phantom "phan"dom in itself seems to derive mainly from the mystery and the seduction of the Phantom himself, or those who relate to the love triangle because they've seen or dealt with a similar situation in there lifetime... but for me there is an aspect of the story that I relate to that has made me a die hard fan of Gaston's book, and Lloyd Webbers song that sums up the feelings of Christine (more thoroughly explained in the book) about her difficulties of letting go of her past. I've had this problem myself for a very long time, and lately it's depressing me that I am only 2 years away from being a quarter of a century old and it still lingers. They say time heals all wounds but Webber's song "Wishing you were somehow here again" pretty much sums up why I haven't been able to shake my depression lately.

I cried like a sissy the first time I went to the new version of the movie too. Em did a beautiful job with the role.

Im not a huge fan of TPOTO (although I did enjoy it very muchly ), but this art is beautiful, the colouring is lovely, the detail in the art work amazing, and the atmosphere really captures emotion that can be felt even by someone like me who has only seen POTO a few times! ^^

CaribbeanBlue In reply to Naoru [2006-01-13 21:04:06 +0000 UTC]

ohhhh.. Thank you... I have actually only seen the theatrical version once, and in the vveeerrrryyy back so it was a bit hard to see.. it didnt' matter much I already knew what was going on from being an avid fan of the book, owning every version of the sountrack I've come across and getting the Phantom stage production book for collectors that comes with the script for the play.. before I even got to see it.. I just collect anything Phantom because of the book.. so Webber's theatrical version is only one of many I'm interested in.. but yeah.. errmm.. there was a point to all that but I forgot.. Mainly wanted to say thank you for the fav. and I'm very complimented you like my work!

PS - what are your fav. musicals, btw?

Naoru In reply to CaribbeanBlue [2006-01-14 12:28:09 +0000 UTC]

ooooh..my fav musicals... I have soo many, Im quite passionate about musicals! I have to say, the first musical that really got me into musicals (And how movies are directed in general) was Moulin Rouge! I also saw a lovely theater production in Londons West-End of Guys And Dolls, which has now become a fav musical of mine...and if I can count Opera as a form of musical, I really love Mozart's 'The Magic Flute'(The story is adorable, but also has alot of meaning behind it! )!
