Look, I’m just saying that sometimes when you’re listening to @cinemasins while working on a commission you start wondering how much better the prequels would have been if Padme’s character wasn’t completely changed to force a romance agenda, was absolutely more gay and had the added sprinkling of Anakin just being a sperm donor. Also I never knew Keira Knightly was in Star Wars and I finished this instead of said commission.

Je me vante d'avoir grandi, mûri, vieilli dans la familiarité du vin ; à le tutoyer dès l'enfance, on perd l'esprit d'intempérance et de gloutonnerie ; on acquiert, on forme son goût personnel.
- Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette
French writer, Colette, born in the countryside, considered herself a “child of nature.” She did not try to be good, nor did she try to be particularly real or truthful. She followed her appetites and wrote about them and observed others sharply.
Her characters are driven by desire: for food, for love and money, for gratifying their vanity and buying new clothes. She flouted the conventions of her time, danced on stage, dressed like a sailor boy, wrote nasty revenge stories with unflattering portraits of her ex-husband, got fat, stayed sexual into old age.
If she had any credo, it was her commitment to art, which shows only through the beauty of her prose, since she wasn’t one to moralise or make grand statements.
Colette’s belief that art should be apolitical - that a worthy goal was “to forget reality, to promise the world miracles, to sing of victory, and to deny death” - was so strong that late in her life, during the Vichy regime in France, she deliberately published in the Nazi-controlled press, a decision for which she has been widely criticised.

Here’s my first Elain commission! I’m in love with how it turned. I sent @bearna_art the reference pose I wanted and she did such an incredible drawing Elain. She made Elain look soft, beautiful, and strong all at the same time. So happy I was able to commission @bearna_art for this beautiful piece! Attached is the reference image (it’s Keira Knightly from the movie Atonement 2007). I hope you guys love this art as much as I do ❤️
Artist: @bearna_art ❤️

Because I was tagged...
Are you named after anyone?
Purposefully? No. But!!! My username (Auzera) is the name of a chair, the name I prefer is named after a character from The Age of Adeline. And my birth name is close to Keira Knightly's.

Yesterday.. ;]

Do you use sarcasm?
Not as often as one might think.
First thing I noticed about people
I'm usually really good at reading people, so usually how they feel.
What color are your eyes?
They're a dark brown, but I think they have specks of hazel in them!
Scary movies or happy endings?
I'm not a big fan of scary movies, so I guess happy endings.
Fun fact! I actually get tired of happy endings and would rather prefer a sad ending sometimes, even though I might not be happy with it. I'm a major "let the villain win" kind of kid.

Chatsworth House and Gardens
Chatsworth was one of many houses Georgiana Spencer, Duchess of Devonshire lived. Although she was stayed Chatsworth quite a lot, she didn't feel as if it was her home.

Chatsworth House was built in 1670 for the Duke and Dutchess of Derbyshire, William Cavendish and Bess of Hardwick (the Cavendish family), located in the Derbyshire Dales. The house is a two story manor and contains over 130 rooms, with around five floors, as well as 105 acre gardens, and a 1800 acre park. The House itself is approximately 81,000 square feet. Chatsworth House has been passed down 16 generations, until the 1980s when the Chatsworth House Trust was established.
The Chatsworth story began before the House was built, as Bess of Hardwick had a smaller house build between 1557 and the 1560s, which can now be seen above Chatsworth upon the hill. Other buildings in the Chatsworth grounds include the Former Stables, Summer House, The Hunting Tower, and many more including Statues.
Today, more than 800 members of staff work at Chatsworth in many different sectors. A database was created by the University of Sheffield, which contains 4000 servants and staff who worked there between 1700 and 1950. This database can be accessed by the public and is free, here: Historic servants and staff (chatsworth.org)
Chatsworth House has featured in many films and series, including the most famous one; Pride and Prejudice, which was the residence of Mr. Darcy, as well as Peaky Blinders, The Duchess, and many documentaries.
Architects who designed the House included James Paine who designed the main idea of the House itself, Joseph Paxton who was responsible for designing the gardens, William Talman who was in charge of the South and the East side, Thomas Archer who took control of the North side of the House, as well as Lancelot 'Capability' Brown who mainly designed the 1,000 acre park by the River Derwent.

Artifact: Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
youtube
For many in the modern age, art and movies are the first (and often only) point of exposure to the concept of corsetry, making them a potent rhetorical tool. In period/historic pieces, such as the Pirates of the Caribbean, corsets are sometimes used as a symbol of oppression for women; when attention is drawn specifically to corsets, it is often in the context of complaints about its constrictions, meaning that many conscious and outright forms of social commentary on the corset are negative, with focus on restrictions of mobility. 
This scene (memorable from my own childhood) represents one such instance of this cultural symbol-building. In this scene from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003), Elizabeth Swann (played by Keira Knightly) complains of breathing trouble caused by her corset; she then faints, causing her to fall into the water below, where she is rescued by Captain Jack Sparrow, who must remove her corset in order to restore her ability to breathe (“Jack Sparrow Saves Elizabeth Swann | Pirates of the Caribbean | Freeform”; Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl). Within the context of the movie, the corset plays a symbolic role: just as Captain Jack Sparrow removes the constricting corset to allow Elizabeth to breathe (while also moving her onto a ship, itself an important symbolic move), throughout the saga Sparrow prompts Elizabeth to shed the societal and cultural expectations and constrictions that bound her to polite society, helping her transform into a pirate. Given these parallels, it would be accurate to describe the corset as a symbol of overarching repressive societal norms that limit the freedom of women. As such, this rhetorical artifact functions as a cultural symbol-maker and reinforcer, as it communicates to a wide audience the idea that corsets symbolize oppression and constriction, both physical and societal, and thus the movie contributes to building and sustaining of the now-dominant narrative regarding corsetry as an oppressive and immobilizing symbol.

Camellia “Lia” Ashe
Okay, whew I’ve been working on this for about a week and I’m so happy to see it done. I have a detective for each of the main four love interests, so I may end up making some sketches like these for all of them! 
Anyway, meet Lia! She’s Farah’s tall af girlfriend, and would absolutely fight anyone at a moments notice.
