Description You were so proud, Jareth. But the right one will bring you to your knees.

Like a mystery of Harris Burdick, I'm going to leave the story up to you.

Like a million years ago, when I was coming up on 500,000 pageviews, I took a poll to see which fandom I should service for my thank-you drawing. Labyrinth won out, which was kind of a surprise. I started this one but just couldn't make it work. I kept picking it up and tossing it aside for months. Well, I recently hit 600K, so I thought I should get off my can and finish this. And you know, it turned out really nicely, I think. I'm really satisfied with it. One of those rare examples of something turning out exactly the way I saw it in my head.

God, I miss the snow.

Some beautiful short stories, inspired by this drawing:
+ To Forgive Is Divine by Lady-Cobweb
+ Sea Whispers by crimsonspiral
+ Forgiveness by Chamaelirium
+ The New Year by greeneyesandglasses

materials: pencil on bristol
music: David Gray, "Flame Turns Blue"

Lovely. Just wonderful. Love the profile in the first panel, and the expressions in the last one. Very nicely drawn.

So powerful. You need not have a fan fiction because it speaks more then 1,000 words.

I love this! your picture and Lady_cobweb's story inspired a photoshoot that I'm hoping to post on the twelfth night, unless you have any objections? I'll link to both pieces, of course and give credits!

HOW ON EARTH DID I MISS THIS DEVIATION??

This is GORGEOUS!!

Oh my, I feel awful that I must have bypasses this fabulous drawing. The strong emotion that is in their facial features is breathtaking...the trees are so simplistic, but they provide a very fitting background.

Fantastic work.

This pic is great! The light, that's coming from the characters creates such a serene mood. Jareth looks so tamed and guilty, I even feel sorry for him.

In all seriousness, the way you capture Bowie's beauty is just breathtaking. Jareth is so very near and dear to my born-in-the-80's heart (and come on now, what girl of our generation's first crush WASN'T the Goblin King?), so your Labyrinth pieces are always a treat!! (Well, EVERYTHING you draw is a treat, but Jareth in particular!)

I absolutely love Jared's face in the first panel. The shape of his profile is perfect. I love his nose for some strange reason.

Lovely soft shading, too. This is one of my favourite pieces of fan art. Excellent!

I've never read the book or seen the movie, so there's no intentional reference, but you can infer whatever you like.

Beautiful and touching
These two have such an elusive relationship; I always wish they would have continued it somehow...I mean, they have that manga now, but I lost my first volume and haven't brought myself to go and buy a new copy; every time I do that, the original pops back up and I have two of one thing :\ And it bothers me...lol

I'll have to check some of those stories out! I'm on a Labyrinth kick...again x'D It's an off and on thing heehee~ And I've been wanting to read some fan-fiction..even though I haven't ever really done that before D:

But again beautiful piece! I'm finding so many beautiful Labyrinth gems in your gallery, so forgive me for faving and running; I'll come back! It's just that I have a class soon lol, but I want to fave it so I can look at it later too~ <3

The writing bug. The one I've had to ignore for the last year and a bit since my baby was born.... WHYYYYY???? Why do so many of your drawings make my gut clench and my heart stutter for a moment?
