J2RB Art Post!
For the first j2_reversebang challenge, I had the chance to create some art for a theme I'd always wanted to read! And then I was lucky enough to have non_tiembo_mala write it for me! So without further ado...
WHEN YOU FIND ME [you'll search no more]
Story by: non_tiembo_mala
Art by: Kelleigh
When Jared unexpectedly finds himself in possession of a stolen jewel that belongs to the mysterious and powerful sorceress who lives in the woods behind his castle, he feels compelled to return the stone right away. The witch surprises him by offering to grant him one wish, and the last thing he expects is to fall in love.
Read it here! On LiveJournal or on AO3!
This is really only the third story I've done art for (and for good reason, I'm a terrible artist!), but this time I got to craft the prompt first instead of fitting a particular story. This is a prompt I've always wanted to read, but it needed a good fantasy author to write it, and non_tiembo_mala totally stepped up! I was lucky that my first two authors dropped out, truly 😋 Pinch hitters for the win!
Thank you, non_tiembo_mala, you are the best! ❤️❤️❤️
Media: Prismacolor pencils, photo manipulations, aesthetic.
About the art: I started out drawing the star sapphire oh a whim thinking I could connect it to a fantasy element. But I really liked how it turned out and built the rest of the pieces around it. I also drew the sunset scene. The images of Jared and Jensen are photo manips (at which I improved greatly from from the first draft of the art I considered submitting, trust me!). The title banner came about from me trying to be clever with layers, and was actually a mistake but since non_tiembo_mala and I loved the result, I decided to keep going 😋
So thanks for bearing with me during this challenge! Now what are you still doing here? go read the story!
