<i&bt;
Along the shore the cloud waves break,
The twin suns sink beneath the lake,
The shadows lengthen
In Carcosa.
Strange is the night where black stars rise,
And strange moons circle through the skies
But stranger still is
Lost Carcosa.
Songs that the Hyades shall sing,
Where flap the tatters of the King,
Must die unheard in
Dim Carcosa.
Song of my soul, my voice is dead;
Die thou, unsung, as tears unshed
Shall dry and die in
Lost Carcosa.
<-i&bt;
-Cassilda's Song in <i&bt;The King In Yellow,<-i&bt; by Robert W. Chambers
This is the newest batch of images for DreamWorld, introducing the series' first malevolent character!
As I was creating this character, I was also watching True Detectiver. True Detective (one of the most original, mythic, challenging, well-acted and completely-fabulous-in-every-way show I've seen in a long time) had already begun making dark allusions toward The King In Yellow, and I found it seeped into what I was doing, taking what I had intended to be merely a trickster character and turning him into something truly evil.
My model for this shoot is the incomparable Dan Donohue, an actor known for his extensive stage work. He's been in just about every Shakespeare play you can think of, and is currently rehearsing as Richard the III in The Oregon Shakespeare Festival's production of <i&bt;Richard the III<-i&bt;. He also played Scar in Disney's Broadway production of <i&bt;The Lion King<-i&bt;. While Dan himself is one of the sweetest, sincerest, most lovely and generous people I've had the pleasure to work with, he has the ability to summon completely believable all-encompassing darkness on whim.
<b&bt;Head over to my blog for tons of behind-the-scenes photos, the making of his costume as well as the WINNER of my print giveaway contest!<b&bt; http:--sarahallegra.wordpress.com-2014-05-19-shadows-and-light-
Model: Dan Donohue
Also, don't forget that sales of everything I sell during the month of May goes toward ME-CFS research! Check my blog, http:--sarahallegra.wordpress.com-2014-05-19-shadows-and-light-, for a list of what I sell, and know that each and every purchase makes a difference, no matter how big or small! :)
