This famous poem by Edgar Allan Poe is one of my favourites. I do not know why, but I just love it. It sends shivers down my spine and each time I read the lines it is like I am reading it for the first time, still fascinated by the style, atmosphere and content.
Therefore when I found out about Empyreal Dreams, who build sets inspired by and based on great poems and novels, and their “The Raven” build I had to visit and make pictures. When I’ve got this beautiful and sensual dress, which is a group gift from “World End’s Garden”, I knew it is perfect for this venture.
Isn’t it just breathtaking? I certainly love it. Actually the color of the outfit is black but the color around plus the light may have changed that a little. There are shoes that come with the dress that were not my taste, so I added different boots.
“And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted – nevermore!”
What did I use and where can you get it?
