Artist's Comments

This took friggin forever...

Thanks to some fresh eyes and a helpful tip I got it done before ripping out all of my hair :D

Anyways, I love the historical figure Marie Antoinette and Sophia Coppola's recent movie entitled so, I was inspired to paint.

So here is Antoinette in a surrealistic environment of mirror-headed servants, yummy creatures and huge cakes!


Hope you like it!

From the Suggester:
...Holy crap, why can't real history be as cool as this? Where =Blvd-Square goes & puts her own unique spin on the legend of Marie Antoinette & fills it with loads of beautiful, colorful, surreal & swirling chaos, several lovely, inspired, & unique designs straight out of Lewis Carroll's head, & an amazing style that perfectly captures all of the majesty & decadence on display? Well, history might still suck, but at least this kicks complete ass! (Suggested by *SlyDante and Featured by ^JunkbyJen)

Very neat concept! I love the idea of one of the most supposedly vain and self centered women in history surrounding herself with ways to look at herself all the time. Very nice how you also had a lot going on, but it didn't seem too busy.

very cool. I like this piece a lot. Marie Antoinette is one of my favorite historical figures to study. I did an entire essay in french about her.
I love all the colors you chose to do this with. Very girly and very Marie Antoinette. :3
I'm just so mesmerized by this. It's so amazing. O__O :3
