Method to the Moon-ness
Artist's Explanations / Inspirations for Icons - 001 thru 060

 

001

Quote04

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - I associated the quote "It is never too late to be what you might have been" to Jo's line "I guess who I am is who I'm supposed to be".

002

Lyric08

- Promo Pic - Just a literal interpretation of the theme; lyrics by Liz Phair.

003

Lyric10

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - I was playing around with lightening a too-dark cap and just like the silhoute effect I got. The image seemed to fit the lyrics: "when darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't take anymore".

004

Unforgiven

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - Because I don't think Beth would 'forgive' Josef for instigating the 'freshie tasting'.

005

Hero

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - When Mick & Jo are heroically going to 'save' vamp 'Emma Monaghan'. That cap was super dark, so I was pleasantly surprised at the detail and lovely colors that came thru.

006

Logic

- Ep.03, "Dr. Feelgood" - Final scene, when Jo is telling Mick the '2 monks cross a river' allegory and because my friend Arderyd would often shout out "Yes, Mick! Listen to Jo!" during episodes.

007

 Bleed

- Ep.13, "Fated to Pretend" - A blend & layering of caps from the infamous "re-turning" scene.

008

Eyes 

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - A very literal interpretation; Josef just did me the favor of pacing towards a lamp. ;-)

009

Undone

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - I was surprised to find that cap of Josef and his 'reaction' to the fate of 'Emma' and 'Jackson'; Josef being nothing if not cool, calm and collected... and Jason D ever the consumate actor.

010

WTF

- Ep.01, "No Such Thing As Vampires" - Jo and his cute expression: So you're telling me some poser-wanna-be, drinking blood out of a Snoop Dog chalice is behind this?

011

 Red

- Ep.12, "The Mortal Cure" - I really liked the juicy red walls-- figures that's what Jo's fave massage parlor would look like... & that he'd oogle the masseus' derriere.

012

Fresh

- Ep.01, "No Such Thing As Vampires" - Another cap with gorgeous composition; the pink sky, Jo's silhouete, the semi-nude freshie pool-side... very sexy.

013

Hand

-Ep.01, "No Such Thing As Vampires" - Self-explanatory, Jo's fine hand... and his equally fine, pinstripped @$$ too.

014

Object

- Ep.01, "No Such Thing As Vampires" - Because I think Jo's look there is very objectifying.

015

Black and White

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - I wanted to show how comatose 'Sara' is not quite real, in contrast to vibrantly-colored Josef... but the heart, the feeling between is still 'alive' :-)

016

Clockwork

- Ep.09, "B.C" - Lola, who is quite the piece of work, inside Jo's pocketwatch.

017

Trouble

- Ep.09, "B.C." - Because that's the moment when Jo is bringing Mick 'his case', to find the troublesome Lola.

018

Sleep

- Ep.09, "B.C." - Same scene as above, with Josef unceremoniously waking Mick by pounding on his freezer lid. The phrase on the icon is from the song with the same name by The Faders, which AllaraGallagher used in a rockin' Josef fanvid.

019

Inside

- Ep.09, "B.C." - That's Jo inside Mick's apartment; I just liked the composition of the shot when I studied caps.

020

Precious

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - For this one I was inspired by the phrase "So I pack my things, nothing precious all things sacred" from Alanis Morissette's "Citizen of the Planet". I love the song & for me, it is very Josef:
"
I am a citizen of the planet, my laws are all of attraction, my punishments are consequences, separating from source, the original sin"

021

Hate

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - For this icon I used the surveillance picture of Josef, the one 'Mr Whitley' gave the assassin.

022

 Ego

- Ep.05, "Arrested Development" - I love ML's set decorators! I mean, it's The Rising Sun Armchair!
If that's not a reflection of Josef's ego, then I don't know
what is. ;-)

023

 Sex

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - Also self-explanatory.

024

 Echo

- Ep.07, "The Ringer" - I liked the composition of this shot, and the way the art in Mick's apartment and Josef's expression 'echo' each other.

025

 Light

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - A very literal interpretation of the theme. I loved how that scene was lit.

026

 Devious

- Ep.07, "The Ringer" - I knew I wanted a Jo/Cora icon for this theme. When I cropped the cap, Jo's expression just said to me 'oh he is so swearing there'. ;-)

027

 Interrupted

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - Because the freshie sampling "for professional purposes only" was so rudely interrupted.

028

 Confession

- Ep.07, "The Ringer" - I loved Josef's 'searching for a shred of restraint' expression when Mick 'confessed' he hadn't actually seen Coraline's ashes.

029

 Trip

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - This was the only time we saw Josef 'take a trip' -- because the massage parlor in Ep 13 does not count for me. ;-)

030

 Rebuild

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - A blend of a cap and a promo pic; also a literal interpretation of the theme.

031

Crawl

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - Literal, again, and the only time Jo 'hit the deck' (rightly so though).

032

Devour

- Ep.01, "No Such Thing As Vampires" - A close up of Josef from the premier, when we first see his eyes go silver and chomp on a freshie.

033

 Body

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - Literal. Because. I. Had. To.

034

Eternal

- Ep.09, "Fleur de Lis" - Inspired my friend Arderyd's Josef fic; the word amrit means immortal. :-)

035

Hot

- Ep.12, "The Mortal Cure" - A glorious close-up of Josef's profile, from the glorious billiard's scene.

036

Couple

- Ep.02, "Out of the Past" - The vampy boys in the hedonistic 80's flashback? Definitely 'lost boys'. ;-)

037

Sensitive

- Ep.13, "Fated to Pretend" - At the very end of the scene where Jo gets wrongfully accused, he allows this look to cross his face, when he thinks no one will see.

038

Crazy

- Ep.13, "Fated to Pretend" - From the infamous "re-turning" scene, whre Jo is thinking Mick must be crazy to ask him to 're-turn' him.

039

Shiny

- Ep.14, "Click" - Ooohhh... the glint of mischief in those eyes!

040

Memory

- Ep.14, "Click" - I loved that moment, of learning something more about Josef's bad boy past in LA.

041

Fight

- Ep.13, "Fated to Pretend" - The vampy boys were back in town, and kicking butt.

042

Time

- Ep.07, "The Ringer" - I loved seeing Josef 'fang out' for the first time. Happily for me, he just happened to do it in front of Mick's clock. ;-)

043

Class

- Promo Pic - Literal on the theme; I loved that elegant, midnight blue suit & the intense stare.

044

Underneath

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - Inspired by the phrase "This core, born into form" from Alanis Morissette's song "Underneath". I think that Josef's inner will has shaped him, made him the impressive 'animal' that he is-- and I say that with love. ;-)

045

Hurt 

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - Literal. Because. I. Had. To. Part 2 ;-)

046

Flower 

- Ep.07, "The Ringer" - A twist on Beth's teasing assesment of Mick being 'a delicate flower'. :-)

047

Discolour

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - Literal; I tried to do do a kind of sephia-toned, aged effect & Jo bowtie looked rather antique to me.

048

Soft

- Ep.10, "Sleeping Beauty" - Literal. Josef having a 'soft', almost vulnerable moment.

049

Afraid

- Ep.13, "Fated to Pretend" - From that scene where Jo gets wrongfully accused, another flash of emotion & vulnerability.

050

Love

- Ep.13, "Fated to Pretend" - After "Sleeping Beauty" all us fans wondered about Josef. Then he goes and says it himself! Love! Jo!

055

- AC -

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - Inspired my friend Arderyd's delicious & dark fan-fic/saga, about mortal Black Jozsef, which I happily get to beta (not posted yet, but, keep a weathered eye on the horizon).

056

- AC -

- Ep.13, "Fated to Pretend" - As my friend Diana has said "and enter Josef's dimple"- which I love. ;-)

057

- AC -

- Ep.13, "Fated to Pretend" - Inspired by a conversation with my friend Arderyd, about how Josef must have seen so much in his 400 years that 'nothing is black or white anymore, it's all shades of gray'.

058

- AC -

- Ep.12, "The Mortal Cure" - I said that billirds scene was glorious didn't I?

059

- AC -

- Ep.02, "Out of the Past" - Silliness. Isn't Jo a great? Bringing his BFF a 'comfort drink' when he knows Mick is PO'd.

060

- AC -

- Ep.12, "The Mortal Cure" - Silliness. I could not resist the cute, frowny expression

 061

063

- AC -

- Ep.15, "What We Leave Behind" - I made this icon inspired by Heartagram_lala's awesome tutorial-- my first time using PS7 (normally I use PhotoImpact, but I'm learning PS7). The subtle text on the cheek is 100% her style- which I think rocks.

- AC -

068

- AC - 

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - Watching this sequence & talking with my friend Arderyd's I said "oh, Justice League!" and she replied "yea, the vamp JLA".

069

- AC - 

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - I had to play

070

- AC -

- Ep.16, "Sonata" - I made this before I knew what a "negative space icon" was. All I knew was that any text or effects would have ruined it. I really like this one.
