I love it, I love the light and the movement and it is such a serene and thoughful face. You must be proud.

Thank you. My friend Nan, who took the original photo from which I worked, said it was prophetic...if you know what I mean. I think I look a tad apprenhensive, but with hope as well...

Beautiful work, this is the girly you met at Lady Jane's. Thanks for all the info :) TTYL

Whatever Happened to Lady Jane? mikhailv July 8 2007, 03:34:30 UTC

Hey, how are you? It was so nice meeting you. Thank you for the kind words about my work. There are pics of yours truly (and David, my ex) in various pirate, Renaissance, and Gothic garb in my LJ... please feel free to ask me where to find stuff.

Another great company is Dharma Trading. They sell Procion dyes (the best, the colors are brilliant, they dont run or fade, I'd never or almost never use RIT again), they sell clothing and scarf blanks, I've dyed a lot of the sashes and bandanas for my pirate duds with their stuff.

Swordsdirect and 5 Star Deal are great for weaponry. I got my pirate sword (and it's REAL) from 5 Star Deal. Swords direct has it for $29.99.

And Drac in a Box has beautiful Goth clothing.
