painting to Sarah Waters' Fingersmith

I started randomly painting a background in the journal while watching Fingersmith, the 3-hour 2-part series made out of Sarah Waters' book.

It was soooo enthralling I couldn't focus on developing anything other than dabs and strokes, so ended up with this mishmash. But it's great for a color punch in the journal.

Fingersmith is set in Victorian England, with characters worthy of Dickens himself. Evil, manipulation, betrayal, insanity pretended and inflicted, babyfarming, and more. No wonder this piece is dark!
