Love Letter

Exams have been keeping me from drawing much lately, but I somehow managed, and for a change here's something you haven't seen in my gallery for a while... Here's Snape everybody. I suppose I was feeling a little nostalgic. It's amazing how romantic love can seem once you're rid of it and not directly experiencing it. I guess that is what drove me to paint this, most of all. Here's my "tender side", the way some people called it.

The title was stolen from a Nick Cave song, and the words in the background - stolen from the song Negative 3 by MM & The Spooky Kids. I recommend it to the few of my watchers who haven't heard it yet; I thought they were fitting.

Give me your blood, your teeth
Your high school pictures
Your words can't begin to
Satisfy my needs

Give me your hand, I'll never
Give you flowers
Your touch can't begin to
Satisfy my...
I can't save you from me this time
You can't save you
Nothing comes between you and I

Show me your scars
Show me your broken mirrors
Your dreams can't begin to
Satisfy my...

I can't save you from me this time
You can't hide from me
Can't hide what's inside
In your mind

Don't know what you see
In my negativity
Always has and always will be
Three parts me...
