The Who Fanart

 My love for the Who back began around 1980-ish. Some friends and I went to see
Paul McCartney & Wings "Rockshow" at the Colony Theater at 59th & Kedzie here in Chicago. It was a double feature with "The Kids are Alright", and even though I was there to see Paul, I was hooked on the Who from that moment on! 
I've been lucky enough to see The Who twice, once in 1981 and again in 1989.
My youngest son recently discovered the Who and it has reawakened my love for them as well.
So of course, I have incorporated it into my art.

This is one of my latest pieces of book page art.

It consists of 6 New Moon book pages mounted on mixed media paper.

The pages are covered with a layer of gesso to create a better surface for painting and then painted with watercolors.

Terrifying Monster

Lost Twilight Scenes Series #5 - Terrifying Monster

by UtterlyAbsurdBella

This scene takes place in Twilight when Edward first shows Bella his room. In the movie, when Bella says "I'm really not scared of you", Edward says "You really shouldn't have said that", and proceeds to throw her on his back and leap out the window into the trees. (cue "hang on tight spider monkey - GAG) Climbing in the trees of the Olympic rainforest may have been cinematically, more appealing from a movie perspective. However, I really and truly love how it happens in the book. So the drawing is how I imagine it would look.

Excerpt from Twlight, Chapter 16, page 345


“I hate to burst your bubble, but you're really not as scary as you think you are. I don't find you scary at all, actually," I lied casually.

He stopped, raising his eyebrows in blatant disbelief. Then he flashed a wide, wicked smile.
"You really shouldn't have said that," he chuckled.

He growled, a low sound in the back of his throat; his lips curled back over his perfect teeth. His body shifted suddenly, half-crouched, tensed like a lion about to pounce.
I backed away from him, glaring.

"You wouldn't."

I didn't see him leap at me - it was much too fast. I only found myself suddenly airborne, and then we crashed onto the sofa, knocking it into the wall. All the while, his arms formed an iron cage of protection around me - I was barely jostled. But I still was gasping as I tried to right myself.
He wasn't having that. He curled me into a ball against his chest, holding me more securely than iron chains. I glared at him in alarm, but he seemed well in control, his jaw relaxed as he grinned, his eyes bright only with humor.

"You were saying?" he growled playfully.

"That you are a very, very terrifying monster," I said, my sarcasm marred a bit my breathless voice.

"Much better," he approved.”

I also did a watercolor painting version of the same drawing.
