A richly detailed portrait with strong Gothic and Georgian overtones. Intense detail of fabric, lace and age-darkened woodwork contrast with the simplicity of the forlorn expression. The questions raised by the opulent but tattered dress, heartbrake and crumbling splendour which surrounds her outnumber the answers given.
This portrait, like my other 'Dragon Lady' images are inspired by a Jacobean Manor House at a location very special to me - but one which must be kept secret to protect it and the incredible heritage it contains. The location is the birthplace of the 'St. George & The Dragon', and all other similar English 'dragon slaying' legends.
The hero / slayer of the original tale, which inspired amongst many other things, Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky, is a direct ancestor of mine.
For this beauty as with her name-sake beast, the glory of fiery passion is long gone, but the legend lives on.

A richly detailed portrait study with strong Gothic and Georgian overtones. Intense detail of feathers, lace and age-darkened woodwork contrast with the simplicity of the forlorn expression, as she holds her feathered mask.
The story is a question; Is she hiding, or revealing? Two opposite actions resulting in the exact same scene.

A richly detailed oil portrait with strong Gothic and Georgian overtones. Insane detail of lace, fabric and age-darkened woodwork are overpowered by an Italian masquerade mask.
The story is a question; Is she hiding, or revealing? Two opposite actions which would result in the exact same scene. If she's hiding, is she ashamed? Would she reveal beauty or disfigurement?
