Mannn. I don’t think I’ll ever finish this but I started this digital painting of kraken era Ed making his crew get him ready in his own wedding attire based on the painting ‘The Reluctant Bride’ by Auguste Toulmouche based on this tweet

[misunderstoodscissors]

After several months of going on and off with this I have finished it!

These are my two characters Marilyn and Aurelius. Marilyn is in a forced marriage and her father (the sadist he is) decided to have a portrait done based off of The Reluctant Bride by Auguste Toulmouche, which you can see the bottom left corner of in the top right (not the legitimate painting of course) as a small nod to the painting.

I saw this list of questions on @tosfumarewords’ blog and I’m in a slightly introspective whimsical mood so I decided to just do it.

What movie do you wish you were a character in?

I suppose it depends on whether I’m a background character slotting into the tapestry or a protagonist (and then if I replace them do I retain agency?). For ease, I’m going to go with background character and that means Ella Enchanted. All the convenience of modern life with the magical setting. Win-win! Also, no textual evidence of poverty.

Create your dream fragrance; what would the ingredients be like?

The smell of snowflakes falling onto snowy ground with an undertone of vanilla.

As a siren, what bewitching song would you sing to lure people to their doom?

Leonard Cohen - Dance Me to the End of Love.

The dramatic irony coupled with that vivid imagery and poetic lyricism of Cohen just strikes the right tone I reckon.

*clicks shoes together three times* Anywhere in the world (fantasy or reality) where would you go?

Edinburgh.

Similar to Harry Potter, if you could reside in a painting, which one would you choose?

If I’m spending my life in a painting I will be entertained! So... Dans la Bibliotheque by Auguste Toulmouche.

Just look at all those books! And the dress isn’t half bad either.

Like the symbols associated with the Greek gods and goddesses; what would be your chosen symbol to embody you as a person? (E.g. some symbols of Aphrodite are dove and sparrows.)

I think a compass sums me up nicely.

If you were to create your own Met Gala theme, what would it be based on?

Well a Met Gala theme should be broad, fantastically aesthetic, and opulant. I think I’d set The Consummation of Empire (from the painting by Thomas Cole). I’d love to see what’s designed. For reference it’s the below. The third in a set of five on the progress of empire.

What seven objects would you choose to hide your soul in?

I’ve done this before and honestly if I’m going the Voldemort route it would all be perfectly ordinary. A rock, a seashell, a scrap of paper, a leaf, a feather, a bobby pin, and a paperclip shall do me just fine. And I’ll promptly pop them down in the middle of more of the same or off the side of a cliff or into the ocean.

You’re whistling while you work, what animals would you like to come and join?

Birds. I just adore birds.

Like the story of Swan Lake, what mythical creature/beings from folklore would you like to transform into by day?

A pegasus.

I tag @vveze and anyone else who feels so inclined.
