Artist's Comments

This is what I think E. A. Poe would look like if he was a bird.
Obviously, he'd be a raven. :)

In case you can't make out the text, he's saying:
Then methought the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose footfalls tinkled on the tufted floor.
   "Wretch," I cried, "thy God hath lent thee- by these angels he
       hath sent thee
   Respite- respite and nepenthe, from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost Lenore!"
                 Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore." ...

Pencil, ink, markers and gel pen on sketchbook paper, original size about 21 cm x 26 cm.
Again, apologies for the crappy scan. My scanner has... issues.

Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't.
Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't.
Maybe you'll divorce at 40.
maybe you'll dance the Funky Chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary.

nobody wants their ex boyfriend to be happier than they are. whether we dump him or he dumps us, he should write a note saying we are the love of his life. and then he should die. :stab:

He's so, so, so gorgeous.

He's my wallpaper, now. I will change all my icons to fit it.

So perfect.
