Artist's Comments

Ting, ting, these pearls on your neck and remember,
These yore times when your mask wasn't worn
Huge, stately gatherings, midnights and days
Disremembered loves, woeful moonlit nights
Beguilings and blarneying, oh, those ghastly sights
When they were all staring at your magnificient dress.

Omg lol.
I can't believe I actually finished this one so fast. But when I saw the theme, the inspiring stocks, etc.. I knew exactly what had to come out.
So yes, this is my entry for =Cat-in-the-Stock's contest.
Cutting out the pearls was very.. er... fun. Also, I learned many new things about blending.
I think that it's at the same time much more interesting and harder to work with models like these - I had only a portrait and finding a good skirt was awful. Almost noone in dA makes baroque stock ;_;

Additional information about baroque:

"Some traits and aspects of Baroque paintings that differentiate this style from others are the abundant amount of details, often bright polychromy, less realistic faces of subjects, and an overall sense of awe, which was one of the goals in Baroque art.
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word baroque is derived from the Portuguese word "barroco", Spanish "barroco", or French "baroque", all of which refer to a "rough or imperfect pearl", though whether it entered those languages via Latin, Arabic, or some other source is uncertain. In informal usage, the word baroque can simply mean that something is "elaborate", with many details, without reference to the Baroque styles of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries."
