Looking for a painting!?




R


im looking for a paint which i forgot the name and the artist. it is a portrait of a couple. The painting must be old and migt be from a scene from Shakespear's play.The red hair lady is on the horse, looking at a knight. The knight looks up the lady, standing straight beside the horse, his hand on his chest.


Answer
The one that springs immediately to mind is:


Frank Dicksee (1853-1928)
La Belle Dame Sans Merci

http://www.artrenewal.org/asp/database/art.asp?aid=29

but the knight doesn't have his hand on his chest. Not Shakespeare either, but from the poem of the same name by Keats.

Arthur Hughes (1832-1915) also did a La Belle Dame Sans Merci, again, not hand on chest but almost...

how should i accessorize this dress?




JP


so this is the dress i bought for my bfs prom: http://heavyred.com/victoriannewyearsevegown.aspx#

i was thinking fishnet style tights, but the ones that have roses or something, like this: http://heavyred.com/flowersforeverfulllengthstockings.aspx#

so what should i do for jewelry and hair and makeup? im kinda lost. also, i do hair and nails professionally so thats not an issue... i have bright red hair and im pretty pale and short.

so suggestions welcome and pics if you have them! thanks a bunch!



Answer
That's a gorgeous dress you bought! Love the rich colour, mysterious patterns and slim fit.

I also think that the rose fishnet tights are fantastic, really will bring attention to your legs as well, but with a focus on the dress.

As for jewelry, something simple but eye-catching will do the trick. Don't try to be too matchy-matchy, but a rose ring can really make your outfit pop more.

black rose ring (red is also an option!):
http://heavyred.com/flowersforeverfulllengthstockings.aspx#

Since the neckline of the dress is already rather busy, a simple necklace is optional.

If you're going to wear leather fingerless gloves like the model (which would be a great idea), I'd say go heavy on the rings (but not so much it's hard to hold a cup or whatever), and lessen the bracelets, or none at all.

As for your hair, wearing it up would give the outfit a more Victorian feel and really go with the dress. If you have bangs, you could definitely wear a cute and simple crown braid and add a barrette.

teenvogue's crown braid tutorial:
http://www.teenvogue.com/beauty/hair-how-to/2012/02/crown-braid#slide=1

floral barrette (great price, and it will look really nice against your red hair):
http://www.1928.com/mini-brasstone-floral-barrette.html?utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=2687457&utm_source=cj

Or you could also create a fancy French braid and put it up in a twisted bun. You can google tutorials on how to do that (:

Last but not the least important, makeup time! I don't suggest anything too heavy like the model wearing the dress. This is prom, a time to feel beautiful cos you're YOU (:

Spritz a bit of your favourite perfume in your hair so he'll want to get closer to you. Pick a rosey lipstick to create contrast with the dress but not create a weird combo with your hair. I'm not exactly sure about the shade of your hair, but a dark yet bold pink may do the trick.

armani beauty lipstick:
http://www.barneys.com/Rouge-Sheer-d%27Armani-Lipstick/00505018331813,default,pd.html?utm_source=GAN&utm_medium=Polyvore&utm_campaign=Primary

Have fun with your eyemakeup! Wear a light silver on your inner lids and fade into darker as your reach the outer ends of your eyes. a dark jewel-toned eyeshadow blended with primer can work wonders.

dose anyone have a patsy doll?




Alaina Lit


with a red dress and a painted face and painted dark hair
for sale.



Answer
Patsy dolls are very collectible. They did reproduce the dolls in the 1990's by Effanbee made in plastic to look like the older dolls that were made of composition. Here is some information about the dolls. I can not tell from your question if yours is older or a new one. You are not suppose to sell items on Yahoo, so put the doll on ebay.

1928-1946 Patsy, 14" tall, cloth body on the first ones and used the Baby Dainty head mold, later it was all composition, molded painted hair usually a shade of red with a painted headband, there is a whole line of Patsy family of dolls came in many sizes, some have magnets in their hands to hold things. (Patsy & the 1922 Armand Marseille, Just Me doll #310 mold with bisque head are identical). The 1946 dolls are unmarked, some dolls have been found on the Patricia marked body and with the Patsy Baby head with a mohair wig. Some of the Patsy dolls came in a black version. 1928-1943 Skippy was Patsy's boyfriend.


Heads unmarked, marked on back: Effanbee Patsy Pats. Pend. Doll or other variations with dolls name.

Others in the Patsy family were: Wee Patsy 6" (Fairy Princess), Baby Tinyette 7", Tinyette Toddler 8", Patsy Babyette 9", Patsyette 9", Patsy Baby or Patsy Babykin 10", Patsykin, Patriciakin or Patsy Jr. 11", Patsy, Patricia, or Skippy 14", Patsy Joan 16", Patsy Ann 19", Patsy Lou 22", Patsy Ruth 27", Patsy Mae 30" tall.

I'm writing a story about a trio who meet a bunch of ghosts in a cursed haunted house, some of whom are vengeful while others merely wish to pass on. Every ghost, however, has their own story that ties back into the whole. Every ghost died seven years after another in that house, except for a few exceptions that relate to plot events. Therefore, the names aren't supposed to be terribly modern. Are the names over-weird? Do the character appearances need to be altered? Opine at will!

1928 Michael Faust- Long white hair and piercing gold eyes. Died due to an accident in his home on Halloween night ~36 years old
1935 Edgar Hamilton- Black hair tied back and shot through with silver, muddy brown eyes, and a jagged scar down his face. Purchased the house and was subsequently killed by Michael ~42
1942 Jasper Atkins- Dark hair, dark eyes. Employed by the Prescott family, lost his life. ~28
1949 Evan Prescott- Blonde hair cropped short. Family inherited the house from Hamilton. Family moved out shortly after the second death. ~27
1956 Tobias Maloy- Brown hair coiffed into a pompodor, wears a greaser jacket. Broke into the empty house with his friends and died. ~18
1963 Niccoli (Nic) Pollux- Silky auburn curls and blue grey eyes. Family purchased the home but left after their son was killed. ~7
1970 Lucien Malcassio- Wavy, dark brown hair and menacing blue eyes. Lived alone in the house and willed it to the Alisdairs. ~30
1977 Marcus Alisdair- Shockingly bright red hair and eyes the color of antifreeze. Second son of the Alisdairs and the troublemaker. ~18
1984 Ava Marie- Mousy blonde hair, bluish green eyes. Got a job working as a maid for the Alisdairs. They left soon after her death, not feeling comfortable in the house anymore ~22
1991 Benjamin Maddox- Platinum blond hair and blue eyes. Police officer who traced the connection of deaths in the house but died under mysterious circumstances while digging around the house ~36
Skip of 1998 due to plot circumstances. Two were killed in 2005 to make up for this.
2005 Arden Nowel- Dark brown hair and gunmetal grey eyes. Brought his wife to the house, but both perished. ~28
2005 Briony Nowel- Flaxen blonde hair with bright green eyes. Watched her husband die ~27
2012 Nicholas Pollux- Slicked back auburn hair and blue grey eyes. He has a mysterious tie to the little boy who died all those years ago, and works as a paranormal expert. Investigates the house with his two friends on an anonymous tip ~21
2012 Carter Clare- Spiky blond hair and bright blue eyes. Fraternal twins with Nora. Paranormal expert along with Nicholas ~20
2012 Nora Clare- Short black hair and similarly bright blue eyes. Fraternal twins with Carter. Mans the camera on their paranormal investigations ~20

Several of the names are locked for sure, and I just want opinions on them. Others, however, are not set in stone. I'd love to hear what you think! Thank you very much in advance.



Answer
Your characters' names are very good. Might I add that most authors use a very subtle names to 'imply' something of your characters. For example, Michael Faust. 'Faust' is a term pertaining to those who make a contract with the devil as in the classical German legend. Of course, this is optional and not necessary, but this technique gives a depth to you, the author. Now, all characters are distinct, unique, and spot-on. You used every clear distinctions, especially the pompadour and the antifreeze eyes.

Be sure to emphasize your characters further by giving them certain body structures, facial features, personalities, and overall philosophy that are unique to that character. (ie: muscular build, lanky build, short stature, obese build, bony figure, high cheekbones, deepset eyes, dimples, a chiseled nose, fat cheeks, constantly-dyed hair, outrageous nail art, piercings, glasses, etc.)

Diversity is important in creating a cast of characters. Disney animators even said that they look for certain contrasts and different appearances when creating them, in terms of size, build, purpose, ideals, nature, name implications, and idiosyncrasies.I also want to note that your age diversity is commendable. Overall diversity is very good.

There's not much to criticize so I'd say you're good to go. Good luck.
