[ Rohan swats his scaly, clawed hand to get rid of Jotaro's own from the breathing space from his painting. You don't just ruin an unveiling like that. ]
If you get your mitts off of it you can.
[ Once he has the gargoyle's claw out of the way, he pulls the sheet away--
By now Rohan should have a giant portrait of himself for the very first wall people see when they enter the castle (which he's bragged about making before) but this simply is not that. Rohan's vanity has been trumped yet again by his love of art. Jotaro's joint Birthday-Valentines gift is worth the wait:
Expecting colors is going to be dampened unfortunately. The canvas has been lacquered the purest white he could pick the impurities out of. Rohan's careful and skilled hands despite their sharp claws and clunky arm fins have made clean, precise lines all their own like a manga splash having been done with just one brush. No precision knives or cardstock have helped him mimic the effect he wanted on his painting of the seascape. Coloring book black and white detail rolling waves and a fresh sky complete with wispy clouds on an unmoving breeze. The only colors cutting out the uniform of the piece are the watercolor purple spray which split a long horizontal line across the water from creatures inflight. Seabirds-- a whole flock of them --draw their pretty wings across the water in a pattern as if they are springing up from the depths themselves.
Purple on crisp black and white.
It looks mundane but Jotaro will know how painstaking it was. ]
You don't need a grand piece proclaiming the things you already know. Less is more with you. Showing, not telling. A piece to look at when you can't go outside in the daytime and you want to fill the colors in on your own.
What do you think?
[ It was a risk. It looked boring in comparison to a majority of his work. Then again, he picked it for a reason. ]
