Alone against the world
Added 2019-01-24 19:12:51 +0000 UTC"And they disguised themselves, and came in the night to the camp of Eönwë, and crept into the place where the Silmarils were guarded; and they slew the guards, and laid hands on the jewels. Then all the camp was raised against them, and they prepared to die, defending themselves until the last."

Hahnemühle Expression. WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE? Specifically, where were you two weeks ago, when I ordered six pads of Canson Vidalon?

I'll now have Katy Perry playing in my head all weekend. Would you believe me if I told you that I heard that song on the radio the first time, and my eyes glazed over, thinking, "I need to paint Maedhros and Maglor."

2019-01-24 20:26:07 +0000 UTCIt's called "The one that got away" and really has nothing to do with the scene whatsoever XD Apart from the "Us against the world" line. The print's in my shop now! <3

2019-01-24 20:10:48 +0000 UTCAlready crying. But I so need this in my life. No hope left but we`'ll give it one last try. And what comes after. T_T Now, I'm not a lot into Katy Perry... could you please tell me the name of the song you mention? Is it Alone Against the World?
