Demon in the Wood

So considerate.

So sensitive.

He's so trying to be kind, but lacks an example of compassion.

*crying* A baby!

He already adopted her. 🥰

Well, she never loved him either; she just wanted his dick but was too prudish to admit it or, heaven forbid, act on it.

I don't know why people act like Alina was head over heels with him and was already mentally planning their wedding and picking names for their future children when her interest in him was shallow, purely physical, and drowned out by her puritanical self-loathing. He didn't "choose power over love", he simply didn't throw away his lifelong goal for a horny, self-righteous bigot who saw him only as a monster or a piece of meat.

"Stolen Hope"

Heyy everyone! Dropping this new illustration to complete the endpaper set for the Dutch special edition of A CURSE FOR TRUE LOVE by Stephanie Garber! I offered to illustrate this scene, because it's PEAK and because it's another chance to tackle another one of Stephanie's amazing tree concepts.

I usually take quotes from the books to title these pieces, and 'Stolen Hope' caught my eye for a different reason. In context, it was describing Jacks at the end of it all, giving up on any chance of true love or breaking his kissing curse. Evangeline in turn, is stealing back the hope he's lost, and acting upon it herself.

I'm so emotional over Jacks in this piece; the droop in his shoulders and strain in his face just shows how tired he was from struggling so long. He honestly deserves all the apple pie Eva will bake for him in the future.

New licensed prints, overlays and foiled bookmarks have dropped in the shops, including for this piece! Check them out at the link in my bio! :)
