Artist's Comments

Night after night the nightingale came to beg for divine love, but though the rose trembled at the sound of his voice, her petals remained closed to him...

Flower and bird, two species never meant to mate. Yet at length the rose overcame her fear and from that single, forbidden union was born the red rose that Allah never intended the world to know.
~ Erik, Phantom

Done for :icontheme-of-the-week:'s challenge 'Storyteller'.

I've been doing so much Leroux art, I figured I'd take the chance to dip a bit into Susan Kay's Phantom with this homage to Erik's story about the rose and nightingale's forbidden love.

Please color if you're so inspired. Just credit and let me know so I can fav it. :heart: You can download for full size.
