Advanced Techniques: Painting with light

As Bianca Rubin holds a bottle absinthe, she stares at the embodiment of the nickname given to the spirit: the green fairy. Absinthe, a highly-alcoholic anise-flavored spirit that was popular within late 19th century bohemian culture, was at one point believed to have psychoactive properties and could potentially make the drinker hallucinate. Perhaps the wine, cigarettes, and prescription drugs sitting on her light stand also influenced her hallucinations and generally dazed state. Only she could really tell us what exactly she saw, but she was, unfortunately, not quite capable of speaking comprehensibly. The night’s partying had left her without energy or the desire to move from her chair. At this hour, the only comfort to be found was in that of the green fairy.
