Description

The painter threw down his brushes, and turned away from the hated portrait. His shoulders sagged and his forearms ached. He could not finish. He would not.


This is the magnum opus of my work so far. I was inspired by a painting (I think) that I saw years ago of a sculptor being kissed by his sculpture, which had partially come to life. EDIT: Courtesy of ~Van-Stein, the elusive painting I'm referring to is actually Jean-Leon Gerome’s “Pygmalion & Galatea." It's breathing-taking. Check it out.

I agonized over details on this one, and most came from my imagination. Of course, there is a very strong ACII influence, which I might change someday to make it more my own. So yeah, da Vinci is ripped. But it should give the L/E shipper fans something to cry/smile about. Is Ezio really coming alive, or is it just the desire of Leo?

Listened to this: [link] . It follows the range of emotions I thought Leo would be going through.
