just for this moment, as long as you’re mine

#madhel #deathbecomesher #dbh

an illustration of madeline ashton (L) and helen sharp (R) from musical Death Becomes Her. They are in their early-show costumes and kissing; Madeline is sitting on a desk with Helen standing between her legs. Madeline has one hand threading through Helen’s hair and the other hand tugging at the back of her shirt. Helen has one hand cupping the place between Madeline’s jaw and neck, and her engagement ring from Ernest is visible on her ring finger. The embrace is intimate and illicit, the piece’s tone dark and occlusive save for the bright, glinting warmth where passionate light filters through and strikes them.

maybe death
isn’t darkness, after all,
but so much light
wrapping itself around us—

a rough painting of hornet from hollow knight: silksong, surrounded by shadowed cavernous blues and red rosary beads, illuminated by glowing butterflies and cupping one in her hand

come give this a taste

#deathbecomesher #dbh #madhel #art #wlw

a close up (!) gloomy + warm-lit illustration of Madeline (L, blonde woman with fair skin and purple eyeshadow/clothing) being embraced by Helen (R, red haired woman with fair skin, a low cut red dress, and pointed ears/fangs). Helen has one hand under Madeline’s hair at the base of her head, and the other hand bloodied and poised to cup the side of her throat. Madeline’s throat is very bloody and has clearly been bitten by Helen, who has blood staining her lips and dripping from her chin. Both women appear quite pleased with their circumstances, smiling, eyes closed or heavy-lidded 😌

#deathbecomesher #madhel #dbh #art #illustration #klimt

a painting inspired by The Kiss (Klimt), featuring (musicalverse’s) Death Becomes Her characters Helen Sharp (L) and Madeline Ashton (R). they are in a pose similar to The Kiss, framed with a nouveau-flavored border resembling both botanicals and vertebrae. Helen wears forget me nots in her hair, Madeline wears heliotropes and a daffodil, and the bottom of the painting is decorated with asphodel. Both women are loosely serving as each other’s light source here.

‘til the stars fade away in an endless night

#deathbecomesher #madhel #dbh #yuri #art

a painting in warm sunset pinks and purples and reds, featuring two women (one in a blueish draped dress with a lowcut back, with blonde hair, fair skin; styled to resemble Megan Hilty in the OBC role of Madeline Ashton) (one in a red lowcut dress and mantle, with red hair, fair skin; styled to resemble Jenn Simard in the OBC role of Helen Sharp) kissing and awash in light. Helen sits and Madeline’s hands are on Helen’s hips, tugging her lightly closer. Above them twinkle stars in the constellations of Leo and Taurus

Random DEATH BECOMES HER doodles during a rewatch because if I don't put this movie on at least once a year I'll -- and this is true -- die.

#madhel #deathbecomesher #dbh #art #illustration

a painting, candlelit and rose-toned, of (musicalverse’s) Death Becomes Her characters Madeline Ashton (L) and Helen Sharp (R). The illustration is a fairly close-cropped shot of both of them, Madeline with prominent vampire teeth, satisfied and heavy-lidded as she nestles her chin against Helen’s shoulder, one hand curling around to gently pull Helen’s shrug-robe away from her shoulder, exposing bare skin. Helen, featuring a few bloody bite marks on the top of her breast, neck, and shoulder, is leaning back into Madeline’s embrace, their cheeks touching as Helen turns to look at Madeline, expression darkened and a bit slack. Behind them is a window, dark and blue, speckled with rain. No one will disturb them tonight

Thank you for hosting!💕

Character portrait illustration of an original character owned by client. They have bronze skin and long, straight, brown hair - braided in two on one side. They have a slight smirk on their face, in which is pretty visible a scar that goes from the corner of their mouth to their cheek. They have bright light blue eyes and another scar following the circumference of their neck full of necklaces. They also wear earrings, one gold and another red, a pendent. They've got an oriental layered vest on, one layer is green, one is black and another one is yellow, and all of them have print on. The atmosphere is mysterious and dark, and the attention is completely onto their face and the little smile curving their full lips.

Character portrait illustration of an original character owned by client. They're an androgynous creature with pale white skin and long wavey white hair. They have one eye pearly white glossed over and the other eye is a light blue shade, corned by a large burn mark. They have large antlers sprawling from each side of their head with tassels hanging from each side. They have a meek expression on their face.

portrait illustration sketch commission of a character owned by client, Aeshma. She is a patron goddess. Her looks are intimidating and dark, she comes out of the dark, looking mysterious, almost threatening. She has two pairs of eyes, two lights purple and two magenta, the same colour of her wavy hair. She has purple scales on her cheeks and shoulders and all of her design is bug-like. She has two antennas on her forehead and two old horns. A light from below lights up her purplish skin and the scars she's got on her face and body, while her lips are curved in a slight grin.

Portrait sketch commission of a character owned by client. He has become a vampire and he looks chronically exhausted and almost depressed. He has pale skin with accentuated eyebags that contrast with the pitch black of his hair that have white locks that follow through his low ponytail. He has yellow eyes and wears a victorian blouse with a blue bib and a dark blue coat on his shoulder.

#illustration #bugs #edwardian

An illustration of an edwardian-era woman sits in a chair in warm afternoon sunlight in an office covered floor-to-ceiling in natural curios. Shells, tree matter, feathers, bones, frames full of bugs, and plants litter the room. The woman sits in a moment of pause, holding a pen, her other hand leafing through a notebook filled with scrawlings. The woman has brown skin that glows in the warm light, glasses, and textured hair pulled into a Gibson-girl-era sweeping updo. She wears a white blouse with billowing mutton sleeves that extend just beyond her elbows, and a deep green skirt lined with black ribbons.

Portrait of an androgynous oc. He has long, curly silver hair styled in a half updo and two front braids. He's wearing glasses, a pearl necklace and an orchid earring. There are three damselflies around him, one landed on his hand.

i’ve never stopped thinking of you

#deathbecomesher #madhel #musicals #art #illustration

madeline ashton (resembling obc megan hilty) and helen sharp (resembling obc jennifer simard) laying together in the grass amidst many blue flowers, madeline holding helen’s face with a soft, doting expression on her face. helen’s eyes are closed, but she pulls madeline closer. helen has a sprig of blue flowers - forget me nots - behind her ear. someone has finally remembered she is there and perhaps had never stopped thinking of it
