[minoanmiss]

Today was good but right now I am grumpy and hot so here, have a fire dancer.

I was going to writ a long ass babble but here, have the damn picture.



What song is she dancing to?

I don't know, but given the post title, all I can hear is the intro to "Fire" by The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, where he shouts, "I AM THE GOD OF HELL FIYAH!" (And yes, the video is him as a modern fire dancer.)

Arthur Brown's stage makeup pretty obviously inspired Alice Cooper, KISS, King Diamond and black metal generally, and a bunch of others. He also gets mentioned as an inspiration for the pancake-makeup period that goth went through.

I nearly titled the post "I AM THE GODDESS OF HELLFIRE". I should have. :D

That would certainly have been a good title. I especially like the jalapeno peppers swirling about as she dances. The filk song about such peppers doesn't involve dancing, though.

Yes, I know that they are flames, not peppers, and that no matter how hot said peppers may be, they are not really "made" of fire.

JALAPENO PEPPERS

I am rolling about giggling

[acelightning]

I agree with that choice!

But another one would be

<font color=blueviolet>I agree with that choice!

But another one would be <a href=https://youtu.be/1vT-VaMXsAw- Robin Williams as Elmer Fudd doing Bruce Springsteen's "Fire"</font><br>

My goodness. Someone else who's aware of that crazy Brit. Let's just hope he doesn't really put a spell on you and destroy all you've done.

[minoanmiss]

Thank you! And yeah, I couldn't resist putting the fire colors in her hair.

Uptown Funk?

[minoanmiss]

Bwee :)

[gingicat]

Ooh!

Something fast with a lot of drums.

[minoanmiss]

*claps hands*

[amaebi]

Oooooh.

[minoanmiss]

*blush* Thanks :)

And I have ice on my to-do list! ;)

[amaebi]

*swoon*

I'm sure you've thought of this, but-- air and earth? I know air is more natural to your work, but I think your earth would be stunning.

Clearly she is dancing to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHQ3byRLxFs

[minoanmiss]

OMG SHE IS THIS IS PERFECT THANK YOU

Do you think Sooj would like my doodle?

[eustaciavye77]

She would love it. I wish I'd seen this 20 minutes ago; I just had breakfast with her. I'll try to show her some time this weekend.

[eustaciavye77]

I didn't get a chance to show this too her; it's been a super busy weekend. If you'd like you can e-mail it to me and I can pass it on. I'll include your e-mail address so she can respond properly.

[minoanmiss]

Absolutely!

[mdlbear]

Yup -- that's my pick, too. (Although something out of Stravinsky's "Firebird" would be plausible, too.)

She's breathtaking.

[minoanmiss]

*beam* Thank you :)

[annonynous.livejournal.com]

Oh yes indeed!

[nagi_schwarz]

She is beautiful!

[minoanmiss]

*happy dances* Thank you!

I love this recent flux of art experimenting with translucency, you have found so many uses for the effect! And again the colours in this one go really well together. Having a firedancer wear all red or similar hot colour would be tempting, but the lovely cool minty hue leaves room for her wonderful hair to shine through.

[minoanmiss]

Eee *happy dance* Thank you so, so much! Especially on her outfit's color -- I really wanted to balance all that heat with something cool, and I'm delighted that that worked. :D

[mific]

Love her grace and fiery hair!

[minoanmiss]

'beam* thank you :)

[ororo]

She's amazing!
