aesc | .art: Every bended knee (Castiel; Dean)

I've been listening to Iron & Wine's The Shepherd's Dog a lot lately, and I really love the album's opening track, "Pagan Angel and a Borrowed Car." Sometimes earworms manifest themselves in art... I'm waiting for the day "All the Single Ladies" ends up controlling a piece of McKay/Sheppard. It's inevitable. Originally the piece was going to be completely different, but the typography came out of nowhere. Now there are a couple pieces, one with just the typography and a couple of wallpapers yay! Walls are one of those things where, if you're doing large art, you might as well make a wallpaper while you're at it.

This is the original piece, with just Castiel. The brushwork is actually three different text brushes that correspond to parts of the lyric, "my love is one / made to break / every bended knee." The font is Baskerville Old Face.

And oh hai, wallpaper! There are a few versions, one with Castiel and one with Castiel and Dean.

If you have a monitor with a different resolution, let me know what the dimensions are and I can most likely customize the wallpaper for you. Please don't be afraid to ask; it's really quite easy ♥

(And you should really listen to the song because of how it is awesome; it's here.

Thank you! ♥

Is that a drawing?

Just a bit of it is actual original drawing, but a good part of it's tracing over a screencap (mostly his profile, which I did not want to get wrong... he's just too pretty to mess up *g*). I got a drawing tablet a couple of weeks ago, and I've been playing with it ever since :D
