Icon post :)

Some time ago, I amused myself with making a number of icons out of pictures that I like. You can find the lot of them (= 37) here, but below are a few samples. Please feel free to use any that you like. (This is my first time using my LJ Scrapbook. If there is anything that doesn't work, please let me know and I'll try and sort it out as fast as I can...)
William Bougueraux, Warwick Goble, John William Godward, Fernand Khnopff, Fernand Khnopff, Hypnos Ted Naifeh, 'Courtney Crumrin' Friedrich Overbeck, Edward Coley Burne-Jones, Arthur Rackham, Arthur Rackham, Arthur Rackham,
Some of them look odd in the gallery, but click them and you'll see the real thing :). Oh - and when I made the woman with the moon sickle I had [livejournal.com profile] lunafishin mind, so if she'd claim that one I'd rather nobody else did.

Love these -- they're so you! Totally snagging "Head of a Girl," the "Jeanne Kéfer" shoe shot and the belly/bow portion of "Queen Zenobia."

Will credit on my userpics page.

Thanks!

Damn! I was going to take the moon woman. It's a lovely icon. :)

Thank you! I shall! (Now I'm feeling all happy inside!)

Thanks for the Ted Naifeh icons, Sigune. I'm not going to snag any because I don't have space, but I DO want to come over and read your comics collection so badly. Your Courtney Crumin and your Hellboys. I think I'm going to buy some on Amazon. Which ones do you recommend as being your favourites?

Not snagging any as of yet but I must say that these are just gorgeous. Excellent content selection and I love the cropping.

Ahhh-- look at that pretty background. Your journal is just getting so very beautiful-- it's like a piece of art of itself. :-)
I nicked 'leaves' and 'marigold' and kept my fingers off the others. I'll copy your idea and make icons out of the art I love the most. Doesn't have to be Snape all the time...

Oh, they are lovely... The only reason I'm not nicking some/many/all is that I have this weird possessive/originality feeling about my icons - like doing all the choosing & making myself.... Particularly like the Rackhams - a friend and I am in the process of trying to get hold of some Rackham Ring prints for another friend's 30th at the moment!

I second the comment about how beautiful your whole journal is looking, by the way - it makes visiting a truly luxurious and decadent experience. Oscar would approve, I think?
