Tortured

Like every other Severus fan, I had a hard time watching his role in the Deathly Hallows. I suppose this painting was therapy for me. In more than one way, I am saying goodbye to my favorite HP character. Originally, I had a lovely doe patronus here, but it is so overdone that I removed it. As for what spell my poor Snape is really conjuring, I'll leave that for you to decide. He doesn't look to happy about it, though.

I love Alan Rickman, but obviously, I didn't base Snape here after him. I always pictured the character younger...and with less jowls.
