Artist's Comments

I'm really close to finishing my second reading of The Amber Spyglass by Philip Pullman and wanted to show my appreciation for his awesome books by drawing Lyra and Will (and Pan of course).

Admittedly this isn't a scene, I just started by drawing the two kids and wanted to give them a place to be standing. Will's not feeling so hot on account on his brand new missing fingers, and Lyra's in the process of trying to figure things out.

I'm not sure how I feel about them both being kinda skinny, though neither one has the most opulent living circumstances, so it probably makes sense.

Did you know that Cittagazze means 'City of Magpies'? Aptly named, considering who inhabits it and what they do.

This is gorgeous, and that is freakishly close to how I pictured both of them.

EEEEEEEE!!!! I love those books. I will never read them ever again because Kris already explained why. But I cried soooo hard. SO FREAKING HARD. I love the way you drew Lyra.

Haha, I finished The Amber Spyglass at work yesterday and I spent about an hour between then and lunch just trying not to cry. <8D owned

So I'm living in La-La Land, but at least I'm not living at home.

I ADORE Pan's expression. He's looking at Will like "I'mma eatchu!" Really nice job, I like your take on Lyra, I've never pictured her with hair like that.
