Description PRINT AVAILABLECommissioned work for someone who requested (young) Cosette as played by Isabelle Allen from the recent movie Les Misérables. This illustration is a concept I've had in mind for awhile now; that is, re-imagining the film imagery ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5… by making it reminiscent of the iconic logo of the original musical. buzzdixon.com/wp-content/uploa… (If someone would hire me to do real movie posters this is what I would do XD)

Title is a reference to my favorite Les Mis song. I've not yet had a chance to see the show onstage, but I love the soundtrack still. Thank you for your support & comments! Kindly reblog from here!

Painted in Adobe Photoshop, about 8-10 hours on a Wacom Cintiq.

EDIT: Featured (with permission) in the ad campaign for the 2014 Les Misérables production at The Paramount Theatre paramountaurora.com/events/les…

Is there a way to get a smaller print? like a 4x6? I just bought the Target Deluxe Edition blu-ray and I'd love to put this print in the window of the cover.
