Oh...my...goodness, I cannot get OVER this! So very very beautiful! First I raised an eyebrow at Pansy, but when I opened up this picture I realised right away that I loved her in the background and of course Luna would see something inherently worthy in her - I've never LIKED Pansy before, and here you've made me!

Irma and Sinistra...perfection. Irma willing to drop her book like that. Sinistra without her shoes. The way they're holding hands (fantastic job on the hands and feet - they're hard!). Sinistra sitting on a floating planet. The background outside. The sparks and patterns from the wands, the solar system arrangement, the cat. Luna and Pansy with their reaching and expressions - ALL great expressions! and fantastic job with the clothes/folds!

This is definitely a piece of art. It's a masterpiece and I could never have asked for anything better. It's completely perfect. Thank you, mystery artist, you have made my time of stress infinitely better! Thank you so very much!

	And I keep discovery new things each time I look at it! The snake holding Pansy up, the object of the cat's chase, the opposing types of wings. Always more to look at - that's what really makes art! :D (Reply to this) (Parent)

	This is absolutely gorgeous! And so detailed __ The background is perfect, the archway--omg, there are hardly words for the archway! I have to say, my favorite part is Irma and Sinistra's hands together and the magic and the planets. Pretty much, well, the whole thing is just amazing. Awesome work, Mystery Artist! ♥ (Reply to this)

	I love HP art that really makes the magic visual, and this gorgeous piece is simply, well -- magical. The iconography makes perfectly clear who everyone is, and the colors and composition are outstanding. Keats said that poetry should "load every rift with ore," and that's just what this art does. Something new and intriguing always to be seen. (Reply to this)

	This may be the most wonderful illustration I have ever seen! ack! it's bursting with magical details, the characters are so whimsical and lively, the colour and light is gorgeous and fantastical in the best possible way. I am in awe! Luna and Pans are just incredible. (Reply to this)

	This is amazing. I love the colors, and all the little details are simply gorgeous. (The planets, the dragonflies, the spellfire ...) Pansy and Luna as little devil and angel matchmakers are a brilliant idea. Love it! (Reply to this)

This is just wonderful in so many respects. Such beautiful women, such a beautiful scene to bring them all together, and such perfect details to characterise them all. I agree with kelly_chambliss -- this has poetic qualities!

Bits I love in totally random order (well, the first one first, the rest is in random order): Aurora's body! Curves, hands, Greekness, all of it. The magical lights. Irma. The footwear. That darling cat. Pansy's and Luna's wings. Luna's arm. The snake. The background seen through the arch. How you work with colour. And over the glorious body I shouldn't forget Aurora's face. Beautiful expressions all around. Great, great work! Will bookmark for further staring!

	And the title and the position of the planets. The little moons. The hieroglyphs that I only saw when I looked at this in full magnification. Really, there's so much in this... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Very pretty, I love the table and solar system, the sparks from the wand, and pansy/luna framing the doorway. lovely. (Reply to this)

	Wow -- that's simply and utterly gorgeous. I love the colours and the fairy tale feel to the piece...and all the little details! Brilliant! (Reply to this)

	How lovely! I adore the colouring and all the little details. The women are beautiful, but what really caught my eye is the sparks coming out of Sinistra's wand -- you've captured the magic in such a beautiful way. (And there's a cat, yay!) (Reply to this)

Oh, wow! This is absolutely gorgeous. The colours, the detail, the light! I absolutely adore your tall Irma with that fabulous hair and your curvy Sinistra. Love, too, the way the image is filled with objects that are so telling of their characters - the book and the parchment and the model solar system speak so much of their intelligence. Luna and Pansy in the background, too, with the serpent and the - I'm guessing it's an eagle's wing? Stunningly beautiful.

This is so wonderful! Especially because neither Pince nor Sinistra is anything near how I pictured them in my mind. You've made me think of both of them in a completely new way. The amount of details in this is fantastic. As well as the colors. I really like how there are so many contrasts in here: night and day, dark and light, blond and brunette, red and green, yellow and purple... really everything has its counterpoint and counterbalance. It's really a wonderfully put together and executed piece.

	Beautifully done---so many details-the stars, the planets, the magic. All four women are just lovely. Very nicely done. (Reply to this)

	What a beautiful image. The book - Irma must be utterly distracted. And the shoes, and the planetarium. And Pansy and Luna too, are gorgeous. A brilliant piece of work. The magical world is just that: wonderfully magical. (Reply to this)

	Brava mystery artist. This is so very well done. I like how Pansy and Luna are bracketing the arch. Sinistra looks so comfortable without her shoes and Irma has forgotten her book in favor of her lover. These details just make me smile. (Reply to this)

	Wow--the epitome of Harry Potter, I think! It's beautiful and complex and colourful and magical, and every time I look at it, I see some new detail that I hadn't seen before. Lovely work! (Reply to this)
