Painter of the Wind

[rosdrise]

Since I've run out of Triple to watch and had to find something else to entertain myself. I watched the first episode of Desperate Romantics, a new BBC series about the pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. I don't know if I'll watch anymore, because as attractive as Aiden Turner is (MITCHELL)- watching men be complete pigs is one of my least favorite past times. It was funny though... we'll see.

I also watched the 3rd and 4th episode of Painter of the Wind (Hey! Artists again!). This is infinitely more lovely. I also kind of loved the bath/swing scene for how subversive/suggestive it was.



I can't really blame Desperate Romantics for being brazen where PotW is more delicate considering the actual history of the Brotherhood, but I far prefer the beauty of PotW.

Yon Bok's muse is gorgeous, and has really awesome hair. sailorgaia - what are those called again?



They are doing a really great job of tying her work in with the world around her. It's really interesting seeing everything fall into place....





I just love all the costumes and the colors. Sagueks are fantastic when it comes to that. PotW is just so lush, I was doomed before I even started watching.

I remember trying to watch Painter of the Wind but the subs were too hard to follow D:
But these caps and your descriptions are really making me want to pick it up again.

I've had to pause it several times because the subs have been too long for me to read in time. But the lush visuals and fantastic characters are more than enough to make it worthwhile. I'd give it another shot if you have time.

I think I will. I haven't seen a period drama in ages and this one is so pretty and slashy
