Happy

Her crooked smile becomes more exaggerated and she finds humour in almost everything, keeping the mood up.

Sad

Depending on the type of sadness, Ruby can go one of two ways. The first is to find herself in a creative block, unable to make art, instead spending time lounging and wallowing. The second is to bury herself deeper into her work, distracting herself from the sorrow.

Angry

Anger creates a restless energy in Ruby, that is often used to fuel cleaning, sorting and completion of other usually mundane tasks.

Biography

A confident and enchanting personality, known for her beautiful and thought-provoking paintings, usually portraits created with a mix of realism, stylisation and abstract components.

Ruby was raised in an orphanage, participating in general schooling, with an ever-increasing desire to create visual art. She taught herself how to paint, worked hard, made connections and pushed herself to get to the state of wealth and fame of which she has today.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Generally fit, but with frequent bouts of joint pain. Occasionally these pains may be evident through poor posture, abnormal gait or other visible changes to her usual appearance.

Apparel & Accessories

Ruby has two main aesthetics when it comes to her dress style. The first is incredibly casual, wearing loose fitted shirts with shorts, leggings or other comfortable trousers. This is usually while painting or going about her day-to-day activities. In these instances, she does not like wearing shoes, usually opting to go bare foot. The other is her formal attire for art shows and social gatherings. In these settings she tends to wear long flowing dresses or skirts, in dark alluring colours, with some makeup and jewellery for show. Wherever she can, she will opt for the comfortable and casual attire.

Mental characteristics

Education

Ruby completed general primary and secondary school levels, but was unable to attend college, university or any other further education. Once school was finished, she worked small jobs and taught herself to paint in her spare time.

Employment

Going from a once struggling artist, where she was homeless or moving between the houses of acquaintances, Ruby has worked hard to create beautiful work, create branding around her image, and promote the absolute hell out of her shows. This has brought her major success, now able to exhibit her work all over the world and continue to build her fame and wealth.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Ruby is driven by the idea that visual art can speak to a range of people, even where she is unable to speak their language. She also believes that contributing art to the world will keep her alive through memory for generations to come.

Vices & Personality flaws

Ruby is part of an underground secret society, where laws aren't always applied, and where magic is less taboo. This can lead to some bad press and ugly rumours regarding her character, morals, and extracurricular activities.

Hygiene

She is always clean, but during painting sessions can become covered in paint that is sometimes difficult to clean, or leaves colourful stains on her pale skin. However, due to her preference for being barefoot, she does have a tendency to have dirty and calloused feet.
