Finished "Blood Queen" Dress (Patreon)

The Tori Amos show was great last night! One of the things I really love about Tori Amos is that her music is constantly evolving but always deeply personal and I feel like it really challenged people to make their acts personal and push their creative envelopes. I feel like this act gave me a chance to move in the direction I've been wanting to go for a while. I've spent a lot of time playing with other people's characters, archetypes, and mytholgies. It's been a rich vein to mine, but I've been wanting to do things that are compleatly mine. I want to create acts that *seem* like they're based on a fairy tale or myth but are actually just from my own head. I think I suceeded. When I was about 6 or 7 I told my mother I wanted to be "The Princess of the Wind" for halloween. My mom had no idea what that meant, because it's not a thing, but she made a pretty dress that was iridecent and had appliques of leaves being blown across the skirt and I was perfectly happy. The next year I asked to be The Princess of the Sea. I feel like this is my continuation of that and it feels *right.* I'm not really sure how to get it booked again. It's a little weird for a classic show, and wouldn't fit into most themed shows, but I'm really proud of the work I put into it and I belive the show is going to give me video to start shopping around. More photos should be coming soon. Videos will take longer because my computer is out of comission for a week but I'll do my best to keep posting. Please forgive my typos, the patreon app doesn't seem to do spellcheck.
