Artist's Comments

And finally, for the finale--tah dah! More Phantom art! This one I did in part for a contest of 100 themes, this one is number 5. "Seeking Solace", and partly because I love to do Phantom art. It was done in pencil and then watercolored on top of it. This is Erik sitting on the roof of the Opera Populaire, looking out over Paris. I thought this would be appropriate for the theme because it seems like this would be one of the few places he could find real peace. His lair would remind him too much of his solitude and how much he's cut off from the world. Sitting on the roof keeps him apart, but also kind of connects him to the humanity below.

Um, the scan isn't so hot, sorry guys. I'm working on getting another one.

Erik belongs to a whole bunch of people that arn't me...alas...

You’ve taken an old theme and reworked it rather nicely.

thank you, I tried to interpret it differently. :)

Lovely. I'll have to try watercolor over pencil sometime.

thanks! I'm glad you like it! It took...muh...a few days i guess. I spread it out over a long period of time, so it's hard to tell. i started mid-summer, and only recently finished, but there were huge gaps in between progress.
