Prompts for Charity
So I felt like asking for art prompts, and everyone seems to be doing creative stuff for the Queensland flood victims, and thus:
1. Donate to one or more charities you've been meaning to donate to but haven't got around to yet. For example, you could make an "International: where it's needed" donation to the Australian Red Cross(*)
2. Tell me what charity it is, but not how much you donated(**).
3. Give me an idea for a picture.
Pictures can be original or fannish, nothing too big or complicated or sexy or squicky (NO ZOMBIES), and if it's something obscure or unfamiliar to me I'll need reference images. Feel free to ask if you're not sure.
Yes, you could get this for free the next time I ask for prompts but, uh...hey maybe I'll only do prompts for charity from now on :D Under-appreciated disabled female non-white/POC overweight etc characters a plus. Silly things that will take me thirty seconds entirely welcome if you just like the idea of social charity giving.
I can't 100% guarantee that I'll get to every prompt if there's lots, you may have to survive on the warm glow of doing good :)
(*)From all accounts, the more unrestricted the donation the more quickly it can be applied when disaster strikes.
(**)I don't want this to feel like a monetary transaction, then it would feel like Work. Then I'd get all stressed about Doing It Properly and it wouldn't be any fun and I might as well tutor for $40 an hour and give the money to charity myself.

I have donated to the Red Cross.
What I would like is a picture of Severus Snape. I don't know if that counts as something "obscure or unfamiliar". While he was played by Alan Rickman in the movies, I would be just as happy with Adrien Brody as a reference - he has The Nose.
The following images are particularly good:

Any preferences for what he should be doing? Or just a portrait?
Thankyou for making a prompt, I was feeling a bit silly when noone had.

Snape should be brewing potions, I think. It is his passion, after all.
