Description

"So I know she forgives me, just as I forgive her. Thomas Edison's last words were, "It's very beautiful over there."
I don't know where there is, but I believe it's somewhere, and I hope it's beautiful."


This is me illustrating books I'm not done reading yet. (Why weren't you born in fucking May, Seb?!) Anywayss, happy 20th birthday!! :) I hope you like it and that you will one day forgive me for peeking at both the middle AND the end of the book. (I'm a terrible person)
This thing is some sort of a combination between the first time Miles talked to Alaska on that swing facing the lake (in my head it faces the lake ok?) and the last line of the book. Because I'm psychic and I know you like that line.

(welcome to the crazy world inside my head in which fir trees are blue, leaves are red, reeds are orange, the gravitational field is amazingly distorted and the sky looks like it's about to swallow you.)

Watercolors, wrong brush, wrong paper - everything I need is 40km away and I can't drive

The last page.. last words of the book.. was so beautiful it sent shivers down my spine. That book was amazing, and so is this painting!
