Seven Deadly Sins: Pride

My beauty is superior to yours....


Pride. "The original sin". The blindest sin of them all. You do not see any good in others, you barely see them at all. All you have eyes for is yourself in all your glory. Looks, accomplishments, you know the gist. It is the opposite of envy. The proud love themselves and would not change a single thing about them. If anyone disagrees, well they're just simply wrong.
It was said to be the deadliest sin from which the others emerged, failing to see God as superior and therefore being sent straight to hell. (a good example is Lucifer aka Satan)


The color of pride, also vanity, is purple. When I think of pride I see mirrors, peacocks and divine beauty. Only problem is, I don't posses the last one, so I had to beautify this look in other ways, therefore the ornamented eyecorners. 





As I said, peacocks are very proud animals, and I wanted to bring in their element with the feathers. Otherwise, it is what I see as glamour gone overboard. There is the defined crease (indicating the hard surface of proud people), the huge lashes (mystery and shelter), a shitload of glitter if you care to look for it in various places and then of course the squiggly patterns and the rhinestones to make it look unearthy. 








The seven deadly sins are now over and done and you can find them all under this tag: 7 deadly sins. I'll do a wrap up post soon as well.

Until then ^^
