Reading Letters From 1818 Is Wild

This was my entry of the NextGen Fest on LJ! The whole thing is 17 pages long (the 1st half is here). This is definitely the longest and most ambitious piece of fanart I’ve ever done, and probably my favorite (sorry Harry and Draco :c)

We’re only finding out recently that a lot of animals have colors and patterns that we cannot see because they’re outside of our visual range. It calls to attention how much of the world we can’t experience because our senses are limited. When we shine UV lights on them, they glow pink or blue, but these are the colors that we CAN see…. they could be a bunch of different colors, which we SEE as all pink. It’s also interesting to consider that most of these animals are not aware of having glowing patches on their bodies…. isn’t it also possible that we have skin or hair patterns that were not aware of? . . (There is actually some research out there to support the idea that our own skin fluoresces as well and that there are gender differences in the pattern and glow.)
