Title: The Key
Rating: PG-13
Artist's Notes: "She's the key to it all... didn't you know?" is the line that kept running through my head while drawing this. Ambivalence in motive is an interesting, if not particularly happy, underlying concept in a relationship. I wish the shadows were darker on Draco and Ginny, but they just didn't want to go

I love it! You are very talented, I love Ginny's legs, and the way they look at each other... and her legs! Her legs are just gorgeous, and Draco's hair makes me just wish to run my hands through it... Gorgeous!

I must say that Ginny's legs and face are the parts that gave me the most difficulty. I'm so glad they turned out well! ^_^

this is amazingly beautiful!

I agree with everyone. But what I liked the most is how at ease Ginny is. That's a rather vulnerable position, and yet she seems calm even if Draco's hand is wandering around...

Fan Service! ^_^ haha, no really, i love the nod to fan service.

I'm a sucker for detailed, colored pics, so this makes me super happy. ^_^ And the shadows are good--sure they coulda been darker, but the folds of their clothing are wonderful, so personally I don't mind it being light, so that I can look at the folds and details and try to remember how it's done. ^_^

Any particular reason for a key and not, oh a locket or a charm or something? Other than the quote in your head, of course.

You know, I'm not really sure why the key. I just had the thought pop into my mind that Ginny was the 'key' to... well, something. And then it translated itself into a physical key, as well. I liked the idea that Draco's motives behind his relationship with Ginny might be ambivalent and key-related. ^_^ I think if I were of a fic-writing inclination I'd be able to flesh this idea out to a point where it would be more understandable to others. Actually it makes me want to draw another pic that's rather... key-like. :D
