Hi Stephilius I can see you doing a self portrait in this style. Thought of you when I posted it. Do you know about Marie Antoinette shoe's? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-19979368
No, I hadn't heard about MA's shoes. Fabulous. And oddly enough, in one of my paintings, there's the toe of a very similar pair of shoes poking out from my gown - pink and green stripes. I must be psychic!
I'm a antique dealer and Historical Folk artist. I created this blog to document and highlight my artwork along with my day to day life as a Artist, Antique dealer and collector. My favorite two periods in history are France's Ancien Régime, the time of French Queen Marie Antoinette 1770-1789 and the antebellum period of the American South 1830-1860. Both of theses periods ended tragically with war. I intend to explore furniture, architecture, decorative arts, culture, history, fashion and the people that made up these two fascinating periods in time. I recently moved back to my roots of Mobile, Alabama after living away for 17 years. Come and explore the restoration of my turn-of-the century Art's and crafts bungalow into a Antebellum show place.
Now, of course, I love this!
