One of my moms

My name is Candy Bling, an alias inspired by my favorite Mariah Carey song off the album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. I love to edit and contribute facts to this encyclopedia.

Some past lives

edit
 
Some of my best known work as Frans - The Virgin and Child with Scenes from the Life of Christ
 
That's me there in the left armrest
  • I was once born a pearl from a giant clam off the shores of Gyali. I enjoyed life inside the warmth of my mother mollusk, so much so that when a diver came down to snatch me, I demanded to be dissolved in vinegar, threatening to withhold my natural luster deep within my translucent layers. He obliged due to my dullness...
  • Ἑλλη (Helle), the goddess of the Hellespont, a body of water bridging the Aegean and Black Seas. Yes, I was once a mortal princess. I was the daughter of King Athamas of Boiotia by the cloudnymphe Nephele. I had a jealous stepmother who tried to get me sacrificed. My mom tried to save be with the help of a ram which was about to work perfectly until I got nervous and slipped of the ram and fell into the ocean and may or may not have drowned. Hellespontos is name after me :)
  • Frans Francken the Younger
  • I was honored to have lived as one of the roses inside Shiro Kuramata's Miss Blanche chair in 1989, which sold at Christie's in London for GBP 46,000.00 (USD 86,000.00) in October 1997 (something I found out during my current life...)
