The real theme is 'hats' but wtf? Anyway, this reminds me of an awesome (that one's for you, C) computer game I played quite a few years ago, called, quite simply, Alice.
C is friends with the fashion stylist Rebekah Roy (left in both pics above) ... one of those people who personify calm and smiling success. On her blog she presents glamour in this very sincere, straightforward way ... whether she's taking pictures of people on the street , talking about stain removers , her favourite videos , or attending some glittering party . One minute she's ruminating on hair extensions, and in the next she reveals how she's been featured on the Vogue UK site. A real disarmer and charmer (and this without meeting her yet, although I feel like I know her because we both did our time in Winnipeg). * * * * * Coming home from Russia, we did many bad things. ; mixed media on canvas, 10 x 10 inches. In my own life, the glamour is wholly imagined. * * * * * witches, smoke ; mixed media on canvas, 10 x 10 inches. My second go at this one, and for some reason I'm painting a lot of smoke lately (note to self: tell C that I want to be cremated). *
"Alice: The protagonist of the game. Alice is a troubled teenager and the savior of Wonderland. After a fire destroys her home and kills her parents, she falls into a catatonic state, and is committed to Rutledge Asylum. She returns to Wonderland, only to find it wickedly deformed. With the aid of the Cheshire Cat, and a wide arsenal of deadly toys, she attempts to put an end to the Queen of Hearts' dictatorship, and return Wonderland to its former glory."

ReplyDeleteIf you carry on you could do the whole story. Personally I think it's a great take on the theme.
ReplyDeleteI agree, great take on the theme! See, even if you hate the theme you still rise to the occasion.
