In the quietude of an empty room, Elinor contemplates life's complexities, her solitude amplifying the depth of her emotions.

Jane Austen: Persuasion

Finished reading this for a second time yesterday-- still the best. 

In fact, this time it was even better. I was more attuned to the most eloquent and touching passages in the book. 

I think the less-celebrated works by Jane Austen are actually better. Granted, I have not read Emma for over a decade (and was too young to properly understand it at the time), nor Mansfield Park. But I did reread Sense and Sensibility last year, which is definitely better than Pride and Prejudice. 

Whilst rereading Persuasion, I kept having to pause and appreciate just how brilliant the story is. The fact that it may be loosely based on Jane Austen’s own thwarted love story with Tom LeFroy (or someone else), the fact that she was ill and dying whilst finishing this, and the sad beauty throughout narrative passages, enhanced my reading experience. 

Anne Elliot’s quiet dignity, honesty, and dedication throughout are incredible. I think that Jane Austen’s quieter heroines deserve greater credit: Anne Elliot, Elinor Dashwood, and Fanny Price. They have great character, inner strength, resolve, and a strong moral compass-- all whilst having relatable and understandable flaws. For example, Anne Elliot feels on reflection that she had a duty to listen to Lady Russell when the latter warned her against marrying Captain Wentworth. I don’t agree, and neither did he. But this scene gives her complexity. 

One of Jane Austen’s great strengths is adding a twist at the end of the romance. My favourite by far is when the rogue Willoughby from Sense and Sensibility fools around with Marianne Dashwood, only to fall irrevocably in love with her and continue being in love with her whilst she eventually married. On the very last page, Austen writes that Willoughby considered Marianne the gold standard in womanhood and thus offended other women. 

In Persuasion, the threat of Captain Wentworth dying in war remains on the very last page, the only way that Anne Elliot’s happiness could end. I view this as a glimpse into Jane Austen’s own declining health and the sense that she will not write another novel. Very poignant, sad, but powerful. 

Onto Mansfield Park next!

Inktober Day 7 - Shy. A strong woman who is shy made me pause for a moment, but then Elinor Dashwood came to mind. She is reserved, and in that the anchor for her family in the midst of turmoil, even when her own heart was breaking. Sense and Sensibility was my favorite movie as a little girl so it felt right to do art around one of the Dashwood sisters. #inktober #ink #elinor #elinordashwood #dashwoodsisters #senseandsensibility #janeausten #strongwomen

Im so pleased to share this project ive been working on: A completely upcycled denim spencer jacket. In an effort to help combat the role that fast fashion plays in climate change, Aquariuz will be moving more and more into sustainable cloth choices and upcycled materials. The days of glitter, sequins, and faux fur are coming to an end, and we must find new and safer ways to incorporate color and sparkle into our world. I think this adorable denim jacket with pop up sorceress collar and stenciled mermaid scales shading does just that. Every piece of material , including the cotton lining and buttons, was upcycled from used jeans and thrift store purchases. The collar and high waistband were crafted from a poly/rayon blend shirt. Theres a photo in the series that shows my materials before beginning. Isnt it amazing that a little imagination can turn some boring old mom jeans into this? Ill be posting this in my Etsy shop, so its available, snd id also love to do this in a green or rainbow palette, so dm me if you need one, i will be making all sizes!! If we all make more responsible fashion choices, we can make a difference. 💜🧜🏻‍♀️#mermaidsarereal #upcycledfashion #slowfashion #upcycledenim #ecofriendly #sustainablefashion #sustainable #mermaids #mermaidfashion #spencerjacket #janeausten #senseandsensibility #prideandprejudice #mariannedashwood #elinordashwood #mermaidjacket #sirens #mermaidhair #mermaidvibes #sirena #aquariuz #mermazing #mermaidscales #mermaidmagic (at Aquariuz) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2BHG9fHpAW/?igshid=1edblp5sywt4y

18.07.1817 faleceu Jane Austen! Uma escritora de um humor irônico e ácido. Segundo Austen, seis famílias já permitem a composição de uma boa trama; por essas e outras que quando dizem que para escrever (livro) você precisa viajar para o exterior e conhecer lugares novos, eu olho para a incrível criatividade de Jane Austen que deixou clássicos ainda procurados em todas as livrarias sem nunca ter vivido além da Inglaterra. Para alguns, ela escreve "romance de mulherzinha" mas eu leio Jane não apenas pela temática amorosa mas pela capacidade que ela teve em olhar uma sociedade pequena e descrever o caráter de suas personagens com maestria. Apesar de ser uma data muito breve para sua morte, Jane Austen perdurará por mais alguns séculos nas prateleiras e estantes de muitos leitores! Permita-se ler Jane Austen! . . . #janeausten #elinordashwood #elizabethbennet #fannyprice #emmawoodhouse #catherinemorland #anneelliot #edwardferrars #mrdarcy #edmundbertram #mrknightley #mrtilney #captainwentworth #janeaustenbooks #austenheroines #strongwomen #tatuagem #tattoo #tatouage https://www.instagram.com/p/B0DnPAljRd3/?igshid=wmqr6pqgl0xo

Up-Dated Inspi-Rational Quotes part 3/X

Elinor, this eldest daughter, whose advice was so effectual, possessed a strength of understanding, and coolness of judgment, which qualified her, though only nineteen, to be the counsellor of her mother, and enabled her frequently to counteract, to the advantage of them all, that eagerness of mind in Mrs. Dashwood which must generally have led to imprudence. She had an excellent heart;—her…
