...Life is just a bright and sunny day!

I've been really weirdly obsessing over Snow White lately. I'm not entirely sure why. But when I saw that Disney-Club was hosting a princess contest I thought it would be a fun opportunity to flex my painting muscles. I mostly wanted to create a more historically accurate version of her dress and placed her pretty solidly in the late Elizabethan, early baroque era. With a little Rococo flair in the paneled cape. I wanted to decorate the poop out of her dress like one might see a courtier painted from that period, but I had to remind myself that nobody ever dressed that lavishly except for portraits. I wanted to avoid the "I wanna look as lavish as possible so I'm going to drape myself in EVERY PIECE OF FINERY I OWN" free for all, so I decided to dial it back. A ton. I still went more lavish than I think a "casual gown" of that era might have been because she's princess- a Disney princess- and therefore she must glitter with all the radiance of unicorn vomit!!

I had loads of fun pushing my detailing and finishing skills, and learned some new rendering techniques. I had way too much fun rendering the brocade and all dat embroidery! plus is all so sparkly.

But yeah! Contest! this is for Disney-Club 's Fan Fave Princess Contest !
Let's see....the challenge is to make a full-body image of one of the official Disney Princesses as they appeared in their animated film in one of their canonical outfits. Plus bonus points for:
Locale: Dwarf cottage
Companion: Little blue bird buddy
Object: Dunno if this counts ~ there is an apple engraving in the window as well as apples rendered into the gold trim on her skirt
Talent:.............the ability to summon wild animals as her companion with the power of song? lol honestly her only really talent lies in her ability to optimistically undertake drudgery with a vapid little grin and a charming tune. La, but we've come a long way in female empowerment since 1938......
Best part is the contest is open to members and non-members alike, so get to work ya'll!

Side note. I really, really hope the live-action version of this film coming out.......eventually.....give dear Snow a little more oomph. Also, I will be highly disappointed if red-hot iron shoes are not a part of the queen's fate. Just sayin'.
~ I know it's Disney and not likely to happen,but a girl can dream, no?
