phosfate: Ouroboros painting closeup (Default)
[personal profile] phosfate


Watercolor, colored pencil for [livejournal.com profile] queenberuthiel.* Swimming cat courtesy DK. Psychobilly 80s layout courtesy too many Paper Moon greeting cards.

For those who don't feel like slogging through Unfinished Tales of Numenor and Middle-Earth: "The dark and mournful Queen to Tarannon Falastur, the twelfth King of Gondor. She owned ten marvellous and magical cats, that she set to spy on the doings of the people of Gondor. Her scheming was her undoing, though, since her husband set her adrift on the Great Sea, with only her cats for company. She sailed into the far south and was never heard of again, but she and her mysterious cats lived on in legend for millennia."

*Beebs, if you want the original, big-ass scan to print out or make wallpaper or whatever, e-mail me. I tried to give you the head from The Beguiling of Merlin as on your icon, but couldn't make it work, so you get a different Pre-Raphaelite instead. Deal.

I would love a kitten.

Er...will it be an evil kitten? (I'm not making a value judgment, I just want to know how to train it properly.)

Thank you again.

Oh, I know, but at least it'll be low-key.

Would you rather have a well-meaning but extremely hyperactive curtain-crawler, or a well-behaved, quietly plotting minion of Satan? Put another way, who's the better houseguest - Charlie Starkweather, or G. Gordon Liddy?

Heya, big boy!

O.O!!!! Wow!!! Fantastic!


I love the swimming cat. And all her jewelry.

I tried doodling Beruthiel the other day. She ended up looking like an evil sorcerer dude. -_- Oh well.

Try her again! I love your stuff.

I wanted to do her all Aubrey Beardsley, but the picture had other ideas.

This is Parvati writing (yes I can type), since Queen B. is sort of beside herself staring at the computer screen in wonder and making silly happy noises.

You are REALLY good with cats, Ann. Damn, you got us just right! This is great! Bravo! We are all gathered around the screen and admiring your work!

Meow... I will share my caviar with you any day!

Ann researches cats
Finds pictures, is astonished:
"That fucker's swimming!"

Once again, I'm stunned.
Ann's a poetic genius.
Draws floaty cats, too.

WOW! Just beautiful. Wonderful choice of colors. I love it and I don't even like cats. (Well, except with wild rice and a hollandaise sauce.)

Not my best work, but...

I haven't attempted Arwen yet, but she is simmering somewhere in my brain.

Ann's drop-n-drag homepage, which badly needs updating
