A wonderful character at the Ohio Renaissance Festival. She is a poor woman who wears all of her belongings. There is a specific name for this character but I do not remember what it is at the moment. She was a pure joy to watch and you could tell she truly loved what she was doing. She was posing for us "paparazzi" but I caught her in an off-moment.
To edit this I used Topaz Adjust and then used a duplicate copy of the file as an overlay to kind of blend texture and color.

Lady Ettie...Earl's wife, was out shopping when she caught sight of a woman bearing a camera.
"Oooooo, you get that camera away from me, Woman!" she exclaimed with a look of total shock and disdain. "Don't you take that picture of me right now. I forgot to put on my mascara today!"
The lady photographer smiled and put the camera up to take the shot anyways.
"I'm serious now, Girl...don't you go takin' no picture of me without my mascara!"
Feeling a little odd now, the photographer lowered her camera for a moment. "Lady Ettie, you have so many colorful things on now, no one will notice that you're not wearing your mascara today."
Lady Ettie stood back for a moment and looked at the photographer as though she had no brains in her head.
"Why," Lady Ettie exclaimed with a puzzled look upon her face, "do you think that I am wearing all of this stuff?"
Confused, the photographer shrugged her shoulders, not knowing the answer.
"BECAUSE," Lady Ettie responded with a type of bewilderment at the photographer's stupidity...."people are so amazed by my clothing that they don't notice that I didn't put on my mascara, of course!"
This is so fantastic! I gave this a 9 in voting. The exaggerated eyes and expression, along with the ridiculous amount of "stuff" really make this outstanding!
Ettie rebounded in shock as she noticed a person lounging near her in some absolutely shocking attire. Never in her life had she seen someone wear white shoes after labor day!
