I'll add a face to the jewelry. Besides, I gain the majority of my life inspiration from my heritage and gypsy fiddling... Fedora (this violin) deserves her own photo.
Wow, a woman of many talents! The only musical talent I have is maybe I can kinda carry a tune. . .and I
can play a few songs on a harmonica. I've always admired violinists, they look so regal standing up there with
the wooden instrument tucked under thier chins. However, I'm always rather scared that they're gonna stab themselves in the eye with that bow!
Thank you. Yes, there really are gypsies... though honestly, most are the unsavory kind. When I lived in Italy, I ran into dozens a day begging on the streets. And it is not because they are poor and cannot find work - part of the Romani mindset is "I am too good to work for you." I find it self defeating. Luckily, I am not pure Romanian and have very educated parents who give me a more balanced perspective. Though the musicians are top notch. That is what I respect: busking: a service/tune in exchange for money. When someone is street performing, it is entirely kosher and deserves reward... but when they are begging on the street because they don't want to work along side other ethnicities... I feel embarrassed that I am of the same blood. A rough spot in this day and age.

All I know about the Romani comes from a single Charles De Lint book, "Mulengro"...I'm guessing there are son both truths and fallacies about Romani culture in that novel (aside from the supernatural aspect of the plot). I've never really seen any busking, but again I'm a home body and I typically avoid large cities like the plague, which as I understand it is the most popular place for busking in America. Maybe one day, I'll come across some Romani music in one of the cafe's in the area that offer live music...I'll look around.
Thanks for expanding my horizons ever so slightly.

This is a collection of deviations showing real Pinups in the classic Retro poses from various Artists.

If you love Polkadots, seamed Nylons, Plateau-Heels and and Miles-long-legs you should not miss this collection.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
