So I curse you

Description

Here we are, in the darkest place
To keep from forgetting, I picture your face

This is post 5.13. Arthur is in Avalon (look there's Merlin's butterfly! He's also holding Merlin's neckerchief but I'm not sure it shows) and Merlin becomes a tree to wait for Arthur to rise again. This stuff gives me closure better than Merlin spending fifteen centuries alone. I guess. (actually I lied I don't achieve closure ever. stupid show) Painted in watercolors because they're faster than anything digital and they make me really happy. Also frustrated because mistakes are impossible to correct. Oh well. Painting plants is like chicken soup for my soul.

Title and lyrics are from Tom McRae's "My vampire heart". You very much need to watch this gorgeous merthur video to it www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-U9U4… I saw it a few months ago and it's been haunting me ever since, i-in a good way?

Sorry, what? SAI has watercolour brushes and paper texture? I've been using it for months and I never noticed o_o
Also I have the same wish/headcanon for Merlin, they totally should have put him in a tree awaiting Arthur's return; him wandering the Eath for thousands of years alone is so heartbreaking T_T
And I told you already but I love your watercolours! Those reeds!...
