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"

This is absolutely beautiful. I love the last panel, even though you can't see much of Jareth's face there is still a lot of emotion there. Your artwork is stunning

This is so simple and beautiful (and detailed). Thank you so much from a Laby freak!

This is so lovely!
Labyrinth has been one of my favorite films since I was very small, and I adore how you've made the ever strong and imposing Jareth so submissive and...something. There's something in the upturn of his face and closed eyes that I love. Something pleading, and painful, but a sweet pain.

Boy, you said it. ^_^ Ha ha, all through my gallery I've got drawings of strong men brought down my their feelings for a woman. It's a kink!

And they're all amazing! "The devil in love : redux" is probably one of my most favorites of your gallery.
I say that, but then - I love most of your gallery.

Stunning and moving. It just makes you want to cry, but in a happy way.

Aww, don't cry! You know as soon as he gets up off his knees they're going back to the cabin for cocoa with marshmallers!

I owe him. He recently pegged my in the butt with a remarkably hard water balloon. I had a bruise!

Sweet hat! It's such a peaceful scene. And I love Jareth in the first panel--his eyes closed in rapture, his hair flying towards Sarah...
Gotta love those proud/aloof guys who are secretly softies for the right girl

That's what I'm sayin', right? I find it painfully romantic when a powerful man is brought down by his own feelings for someone.

Gorgeous! It captures them beautifully, and I love the setting. There's such strong emotions between them-it tugs at the heartstrings.

Thank you. That's what I like to hear.

I can't really make out jareth's face in the bottom boxio thing.

Very beautiful. I love your style...you really make the most out of the white, yet still bring out the details. Excellent! ^^

It's a habit borne of laziness, but it gets the job done!

Absolutely stunning. The fact that you can only see part of his face in the last panel and still know exactly what emotion (or raw cocktail of emotions) he's feeling is just phenomenal.
Your pencil work is some of the most beautiful I've seen on DeviantArt. Please don't ever stop drawing.

I love Labrynth.. it introduced me to David Bowie, subsequently changing my life. : )
This is an amazing piece. Normally I'm not too big on fanart... too often do artists draw characters in ways or scenes that are very out-of-character. But this... this is perfect. Very Jareth, very Sarah.
It took me a minute to figure out the last panel, but when I did, I loved it.
Jareth's hair is amazing, as is Sarah's. The backdrop of the second panel is very well done, and doesn't take away from Sarah and Jareth in the center. And both look perfect. (!!!!)
I love this movie... and I love this piece. Amazing job (:

I know exactly how you feel, about fan art. Jareth sitting buck nekkid on his windowsill like some cheap pinup? Please. The man is too fashion savvy to go around naked. ETC.
