Photos from the Swan Lake Masquerade Ball

Dear Friends,

I have been taking a little break, as of late; letting my hands heal a bit from all the handsewing I did for the Masquerade Ball Vignette for Dances of Vice!

I have been painting ( yes, oil painting!) which is something I have been wanting to
get back to, for oh around 10 years now...( more on that later)

Miss Jeniviva's ("The Dying Swan") tulle and ostrich feather skirt took about 50-60 yards of black tulle to make. It was hand draped too, mind you!


With out further ado.. here are the pictures courtesy of
