Description
For the "Robin Williams Tribute" Collab www.deviantart.com/journal/Rob… held by the Disney-Club disney-club.deviantart.com/ ...The idea being to draw Genie, voiced by Robin Williams, on many, many little squares and to put them together as a tribute to this wonderful artist, I really wanted to join: Robin Williams was a big, happy part of my childhood; I saw many of "his" movies and smiled, laughed, cried... he always touched my heart. He brought joy to so many people... it makes me really sad to think that he couldn't find enough of it in himself to keep going... anyway... I truly hope he's at peace now...
About the drawing:
At first, I thought about drawing Genie dressed as Mrs Doubtfire... or as Peter Pan... or as Teddy Roosevelt's statue... and I told Hubby: "I hope that he'll see our collab from high above, where he is surely floating, and that it will make him smile"... and then came swimming into my brain the last scene of Aladdin... with this big, round moon laughing and turning to reveal Genie's face... I smiled and began to draw...
"I’m history! No, I’m mythology! Nah, I don’t care what I am: I’m free!"
made with:
Faber Castell Black Marker

Ouch, that must hurt... (I needed to check the illness name, "sinusitis" sounded like some Math disease).
Hope you'll get better soon!

Tea and sleep sound nice, they'll help for sure. Plus blanket. Blankets have the power to protect you from all the bad stuff.

and comfort food, too, I guess...

Auto-suggestion is cool ^^ Although it doesn't always work for me, sometimes I suspect my subconsciousness refuses to cooperate.

great minds think alike.... and great minds are very stubborn, too

Of course

oh wow, too many
but off the top of my head, I'd say Good Morning Vietnam, Good Will Hunting, Hook, Mrs Doubfire... and also his secondary role in Night at the Museum... he was an awesome Teddy Roosevelt...
I haven't seen What Dreams May Come yet, but have heard really bad and really good things about it... what makes this film one of your favorites??
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Just the version of Hevean and Hell, though its sadley ironic...
But I love the film to death, and oh yes who could forget GOOOOD MOOOORING VIETNAM!
I also loved his darker turns, in Insomnia and One Hour Photo. He really made great psycho paths.

that's him... his name is Genie and, at the end of the movie, he changes into the moon

something about this is really reminding me of the moon from Majora's Mask.
All joking aside, it's a very sweet idea and drawing for the collab. Lovely
