I recently started painting the remaining blanks for my Fairy Tale Ornament Collection. My first thought was - I don't paint like that anymore! My style has changed and my technique has evolved in the 7 years since I first created the designs.
My Cinderella Ornament originally had brown eyes and hair and was wearing a pearl gray Empire style gown. I wanted her to have a more elaborate gown, so I added a sash and a second lace-trimmed layer to her skirt. White over the elbow length gloves and a glittery gold mask complete her new look.
The changes to my Snow White Ornament are mainly to her dress. I wanted the dress to look more like a medieval style "princess" dress. Snow White is now wearing a pink & gold floral brocade gown over a white chemise. I like the combination of an old-fashioned dress design done with modern colors.
I'm working on the Pumpkin Coach Ornaments now. I'll post pictures when they are done!
