Fandom: due South
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski
Rating: G
Warnings: none
Disclaimer: Not mine.
Notes: Mixed media collage on gessoed hardboard, 12x16".
Media include:
Collage--Assorted photos from DueSouth, my still-life photos, Chicago map from magazine, photo of Chicago skyline by Buphoff and licensed under Creative Commons license), new sketches, and a print of my original drawing of Diefenbaker from a previous artwork.

Other media: acrylic paint, acrylic mediums (including fiber paste, pumice gel, and more), ink, ink pens, pastel pencils, graphite, watercolor pencil, and if there's anything else in there, I don't remember.

The central image was drawn and then painted from memory and imagination, which is one of those practices my instructors generally say to avoid. I listen to them about a lot of things, but not that. It was no doubt a mistake, but, as at least one Fraser would say, there you have it.

Acknowledgments: Thanks to mizface for the inspiring (and deliciously long!) story. So many options! Thanks to her also for brainstorming help and looking at early sketches and concepts. Enormous thanks to my two betas, riazendira and akamine_chan, who looked at the piece at some ungodsly hours and provided crucial handholding and cheering-on. Finally, gigantic, Yukon-size thanks to the mods, who were the absolute embodiments of patience and understanding as I pushed this to completion over a series of sleepless nights stolen from a challenging RL schedule and circumstances.
