It is Snape going down on an obviously older Harry Potter. At least, that is my assumption because the Snape didn't look at all like Rickman. (And I've seen Alan Rickman naked! :P ) What makes it so crazy is that the Harry Potter drawn in the picture looks to be between 16-20 anywhere, and most certainly does not look like a child.
Regardless of how anyone feels about fanart, I'm really appalled that the LJ Abuse team suddenly thinks they are the arbitrators of artistic merit! It makes me worry that Nemeth's art could fall victim, or even photography by fine people like you. (Though I have an ugly suspicion that much of this is indeed veiled homophobia.)
On an unrelated note, I am getting your picture of the trees against the sky framed and hung up in my library.
You're right, of course -- about the abuse of power, and I suspect the homophobia as well. It had occurred to me that if it were the actors depicted in the drawing, the law would back up the artist: Both men are of legal age.
I'm sure Six Apart will get around to me soon enough. I use the "F" word like it was going out of style. When they do, I'll archive my posts and move elsewhere. No fucking checkbook liberal is gonna tell me how to think.
Thanks for honoring my picture with a place in your library! I am quite flattered.
