Teaser:





First, I hated it. I didn't know Eames face would be so hard to draw from this angle. His nose, in particular, gave me fits.  I like it more now, after a good night's sleep. Apparently I was channeling Jo Chen style-wise, which is quite alright. :)

Feedback is lovely.

Thank you. :) The more I look at it, the more I like it. It was just frustrating to draw, to the point where I couldn't figure out if anything looked right or if it was just me.

I seldom (make that never and this therefore is a first) comment on drawings. A lot of them don't particularly represent the actual people and that is what I look for in portraiture, silly me. So, you can believe me when I say that this is very well done. I like the tender moment caught, the expression on Ariadne's face and just the overall feel to the piece. I look forward to any other drawings you may feel inspired to create for this fandom.

I'm honored to have that distinction. Thank you. :D

I do try to get as close a likeness as possible while maintaining my own style. That's what I find most challenging, yet fun about doing fan art. I'm fairly certain that I'm not done creating art for this fandom. ;)

Lovely! I can definitely see the Jo Chen influence. I especially love the work on the hair!

*sees icon* Hey, it's Knives! Ahem...


Yeah, the Jo Chen influence was surprising because it's been a long time since I've looked at her work. The hair was fun for me to draw, as always. I didn't notice until looking at reference images how pretty Ariadne's hair was in the film. :)

Your icon is hypnotic.

This is amazing and you are awesome. Exactly how I pictured it when I read the fic!

Yay! Thanks. As I said, I couldn't get the image out of my head, so I figured I'd draw it. :)

BEAUTIFUL! I think Eames' profile/nose is RIDICULOUS (IN AN AMAZING WAY). Her hair is delicious, as are her eyes and mouth (looks just like Ellen). Mmmm, his jaw, his stubble, her EYE LASHES... this is so good!!!

Thank you for loving all the details that you mentioned. I really do like how Ariadne's face turned out. :)

Oh how this pairing is my dirty little fandom favorite. Eames, you are such a wonderfully, romantic scoundrel.

Yeah, I didn't consider this pairing at all until I saw fic for it, and now it's my guilty pleasure pairing. :) Thank you.

I know! My sister liked it and rec'd me some fics and then I saw how wonderful and adorably snarky it could be (and still fluffy and romantic too).

Everyone loves Eames. If someone doesn't love Eames, there is something wrong with you in my opinion.

Oh, this is lovely! Ariadne's expression is fantastic, and I love all of the detail in this: her hair, his stubble, the shading of his ear, etc. It's all so intricate! ♥

Glad you noticed and appreciate all the little details. :)

Oh, I think that's lovely! They look fantastic. Realistic and also kind of vulnerable.
