Commission art for ArtisticAunJuli

It's Christmas time in the Malfoy Manor, and years after the death of Narcissa (aww... poor Narcissa) and the defeat of Voldemort, Lucius throws a Christmas party in his "ballroom", and everyone is invited. No one is excluded. After the tramatic events that occurred with the demise of Lord Voldemort, everyone is a little closer even though the former Death-Eaters-turned-Order spies are still wary of the goody-goody Order, and the Order is still quite hesitant and repulsed by the former Voldemort allies. Being that its a few years later, most of the students, who were formerly in Hogwarts during the 2nd Voldemort age, are now pursuing their careers and are quite successful. Everyone from that Hogwarts class now get along fairly well, yes, Draco too, and they are all chatty at this party. Lucius, though he would never admit since he is a total badass, cannot come to terms with the death of his wife even though it has been so many years. The whole party was truly at the coaxing of his friends, the non-former-DE, hoping he might find someone to capture his attention. Well. He did, and it was certainly what none of them had wanted nor expected.

from right to left -
Ginny, Snape, Harry Ron, Fleur, Bill, Pansy, Draco, Bella, Rodolphus, Moody, Goyle, Crabbe, Scrimgeour, Umbridge, Hermione, Lucius, Lupin, and Tonks!

Acrylic on hot press watercolour illustration board. The painting is roughly 16"x20".

That is gorgeous! I love the details of the clothing - oh, goodness, all those folds! - and the decorations in the ballroom. The musicians in the back are an especially nice touch, and the expressions on the guests are well done. :)

It's really detailed and, as has been said before, the expressions are very well done and the overall mood is quite impressive.
