Art: Suspended in Space (PG)

Title: Suspended in Space
Characters: Harry/Draco
Rating: PG
Created with: Painter X
Warnings: crack!art, surrealism, Eggplant!Draco and Tomato!Harry, slight creep factor
Notes: This is fanart for [livejournal.com profile] potteresque_ire's awesome fic, Eggplant Parmesan. Thank you, [livejournal.com profile] marguerite_26, for the reassurance! Additional notes below.

Additional notes: I read Eggplant Parmesan two nights ago, and I'm just a bit in love with it. I've never read anything like it. And I really, really wanted to paint veggie!H/D.

I took a break from my current project and painted this in a whirlwind yesterday. I love surrealism but haven't ever done anything truly surreal (it's always been more traditional), so this was a lot of fun. But by the time I finished it and took a good look at it, I wasn't so sure it should have been done! I wrote [livejournal.com profile] marguerite_26:

You see, unlike the fanart that [livejournal.com profile] red_rahl did, which was adorable, this is
just sort of creepy. And it was meant to be, being surrealism and all. But still.
Should I post it? Do you think she'll like it? Should I dispose of it??? LOL.


She said I should post it, the dear.

[livejournal.com profile] potteresque_ire, this is for you! I hope you like it! ♥

ZOMG! I've never been so hungry in my life!

*hugs*

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL! Tell me about it! The poor, poor vegetables.

*hugs* I still owe you an email! I'll be writing back within a day or two, but let me just say that I'm excited. :D

I love you. I really do. =D

;) Glad I'm not being disowned! ♥

[identity profile] alaana-fair.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I'm glad you posted it! *pets the poor veges*

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
They definitely need to be petted, the poor darlings!!

[identity profile] mystressxoxo.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
OH!! I LOVE that fic, and this is SO cute! *giggles for even saying that veggies are cute* xD ... ... It's SO CUTE!! *dies* =^;^=

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, that fic is just too cool, right?? :D

I'm glad you think they're cute!! Thank you!

[identity profile] cassie-black12.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
That is so cute! I usually hate tomatoes and aubergines, but I'll make an exception for these two *g*

You are fabulous *squishes*

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you, hon! *g* These two are always the exception, aren't they? I'm not a fan of red and purple together, but they make it work. ;)

[identity profile] brknhalo241.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it's wonderful and the slightly creepy part for me is the way the eyes seem to give the entire vegetable personality. Brings new meaning to still-life since there does seem to be life in the vegetables!! Thank you so much for shaing..

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
That does bring new meaning to still-life!! They do give the whole vegetable personality - it's rather bizarre! Thank you, I'm so delighted you liked this.

*LOVES*

My dear. *gives you a stern look* No more of this wibbling about posting. You are VERY TALENTED and we will all ALWAYS be happy to see your work. And potteresque_ire is the sweetest person ever and would only ever be flattered to death to have tribute art. So, no more worrying or self-doubt.

Honestly. If you weren't so adorable, I'd have to smack you. ;)

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
*YAY* :D

Yes, alright, no more wibbling! I agree, and I'd smack myself too, lol! I'll try to stop being mental. Thanks for the admonishment, sweetheart.

Sorry I haven't written you back yet!! I love the ideas and will be writing back sooooon.

[identity profile] jtsbbsps-dk.livejournal.com 2009-08-11 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Omg, that is so AWESOME! XD

Beautiful in the creepy way, but that just makes it cooler! I'm glad you posted it!

Ps: I get curious looking at your signature - is your real name Julie? ^_^

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you! LOL that's just what I was going for actually - beautiful in a creepy way. :D

You know, a little while after I signed it, I looked at it and thought it looked like Julie. It's meant to be a scrawling of my pen name, Jacqueline. ;)

Hahahahaa! That's adorable. It's not creepy at all. It is kinda funny, though. (those eyes, my goodness!!!)

And the moral of the story is................
Always listen to Maggie!

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you, darling! I know, the eyes, right?? I must admit, they creep me out a wee bit. ;)

Exactly! Maggie is the best. And I was going to write but since I have you here, thank you so much for the offer to help or give an artist's opinion if I need one. I really appreciate it!

Also, I'd love to do the same for you. pink_mint@ymail.com is my email, if you'd ever like help from me! :)

Oh how funny. It's adorable. And oddly fitting. Yes. H/D vegetable love. (Our vegetable love should grow/ Vaster than empires and more slow)

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you, dearest. It is fitting, isn't it? If you haven't read the fic, I implore you to go take a peak at it. Lord, it's good.

Our vegetable love should grow/ Vaster than empires and more slow

Love that!! *G*

SQUEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

You posted it!!!!!!!

I adore how Draco looks kind of laissez-fair, like I'll just lay here and look gorgeous, ok?

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
:D !!!! Yes!! lol!

I'll just lay here and look gorgeous, ok?

Oh, that is so what he's thinking. I love it. *g*

lol I dunno why, but the looks on their "faces" just scream "I will kill you..."

This is awesome, though! Now I'm gonna have to go check out that story... =D

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, yes, exactly. They're just a bit demented-looking. ;) Thank you so much!

And please do check out the story!! :D

Gorgeous colors!

Thank you so much!

[identity profile] fireflavored.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
And somehow you have managed to capture all the angst of the fic... I'm sitting here feeling sad for a fricking eggplant and tomato! Another fabulous pic :)

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
That's really excellent to hear that I captured the angst, seriously. I know, I mean, the poor eggplant and tomato - they're as tragic as Romeo and Juliet. Thank you!! :D

[identity profile] calanthe-fics.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
ROFLMAO

Oh, you and Pie together. It's more than I can bear ....

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL!! :D Thanks, love.

[identity profile] serendipity-008.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
LOL
I haven't read that fic but these are really cute :)

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
*G* Thank you! And please do give it a whirl. It can't be explained, it just needs to be read. :)

[identity profile] red-rahl.livejournal.com 2009-08-12 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
Your painterly style just blows me out of the water, it's so fantastic! I love the texture of the skin and those eyes are so awesome (even as I get creeped out when I stare at them long enough)! The colors are so vibrant and it really does look like vegetables laying out in front of a black backdrop...that happen to be staring at you...*twitches* XD

And dude, [livejournal.com profile] potteresque_ire's Eggplant Parmesan needs so much love, I'm very glad you joined us admirers in our madness! Pie will totally love this! *has no doubt about it*

Ooooh It's Red "I'm on a boat" Rahl!!! *waves like mad* :DDDDDDD

It's amazingly awesome how your art and pink mints are totally different in style and and totally made of win, and they all come from my silly little fic!! :D You artist amazes me. I want to cuddle your veggies, while these ... I think I would like to watch them under the invisible cloak. They look so dangerous, like they are laced with fatal pesticides. Mmmm. *plot bunnies sprouting*
