‘OTHERWORLD ADVENTURES BY RESA McCONAGHY’
Princess Blue Holly descended gracefully into Otherworld.
She was led by her Tangle-Heart. A moonless night was falling, as it watched over the defoliated magic trees.
Upon arrival, Blue Holly adopted the garb of the common peoples of Otherworld. She wandered tirelessly through a dark, eternal 3 a.m., searching for SheyGoth.
At first the song was far away, but PBH followed the music. AGM Shey was an incurable romantic. She was sure SheyGoth was behind the music.
As PBH drew near to SheyGoth, DracGoth intercepted.
“Princess Blue, I call you out! You are not in your league here. You have few powers to do anything. SheyGoth is here of her own free will. She can only leave of her own free will. We are Otherworld lovers.”
Blue Holly faced him dead on, albeit a tad cheeky.
“Was it the red hair that tipped you off? Look, I just want to talk to SheyGoth!”
SheyGoth appeared behind her Goth lover.“Princess Blue, I have no desire to talk with you!”
PBH replied, “then at least speak with Rene. You owe her that much. She made you, and all of the Art Gowns Models international celebrities.”
Driven by her love for all her AGM sisters, SheyGoth conceded. Blue Holly chose Nowhere & Nothing World, for the meeting. SheyGoth slipped on a simple gown, thereby becoming AGM Shey for the occasion.
A hologram of Rene Rosso appeared. “Come home dear Shey!”
“Remember the gowns, the colours, the joys of the catwalk? Remember Holly, Dale, Marina & Gigi? Remember how all the AGMs help each other? They wait for you! Rebecca Budd says she can’t do another show without you!”
AGM Shey’s memories filled the air around her. Soon her true colour came back.
AGM Shey looked at RR, and asked,”Will you sing “Once I Was Loved”, by Melody Gardot?”
DracGoth was frantic. “SheyGoth, don’t leave me! I love you! I need you! We are Otherworld lovers!”
“Sorry, Dahling! As much as I love our loving, there is no colour, no daytime, no any other time but 3 a.m. here. The Girlfriends and Gowns are calling. Dahling, you can come up and see me any night! I’ll wait in the dark for you.”
With that, SheyGoth slowly faded into a golden glow. The golden glow was cast upon the leafless magic trees.
Soon AGM Shey’s tree and all other magic trees were green again.
One-eye shed a tear for love.

TWO Things of note.
1. I was commissioned to draw Dracula. DracGoth is some of the drawings that did not win. Here is the winner:
2. AGM Shey/aka SheyGoth/ aka Shehanne Moore – IS a true romantic. She writes the best historical romances, ever! Of 8 I’ve read 7. I’ve reviewed 6 here on Art Gowns. More will come!

ABOUT RESA
My name is Resa McConaghy. I’m a Costume Designer for film and television.
“Art Gowns” is a creative project that has sprung from my old Blog, Queen’s end.
As “Art Gowns” continues on, I will Post other creative clothing ideas with the “Art Gowns” branding.
All of these ideas, of course, will revolve around the “Art of Glamorous Fantasy”. I’m thinking things like Poetry Shirts, DIY Gowns and DIY Crystaline Accessories.
This is all new to me, and should develop with time.
Cheers!

What? No Vodka and Cossack dance for the poor Hamsters after being hijacked by Resa? That’s like double unfair. That was a super post by Resa with a good golden outcome for you and your Gothic tendencies.
Clanmother said:
Love those dudes!!!
shehannemoore said:
We won’t tell them. We don’t want them too big for their paws. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
shehannemoore said:
It was indeed a great post for me. AND even better YOU are there too Timothy, with your wonderful photograph. Of course the dudes do like to moan and whinge. You can be assured they have downed several bottles and are still at the cossacking.
Timothy Price said:
Phew! I was worried for the little dudes. May the cos sack be with you.
shehannemoore said:
Oh I am kind truly to the dudes. One should never be without one’s voddie.
Clanmother said:
Dear SheyGoth/AGMShey – I know that you had a difficult choice to make for there are times where we are divided and long to be in two worlds. But you made the right decision to come back to AGM. As your Art Director, I was frantic with worry and could never imagine ever being able to go on without AGM Shey. This is a happily ever after story. Sending hugs to the Dudes!
shehannemoore said:
Of course I could disappoint my Art Director, or let the side down. How shocking would that be sor someone like Drac…..?. xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Dave Astor said:
When talents like Resa and Shehanne team up — with an assist from Timothy — the results can only be magnificent! The dudes know this in their hamster heart of hearts.
shehannemoore said:
BTO.. I think I need to borrow Misty to set on the dudes, cos i don’t know they think this in their claws and their teeth and that IS concerning. XXXX for coming by Dave and thank you for the lovely comment.
Dave Astor said:
You’re welcome, Shehanne, and LOL! 😂
shehannemoore said:
xxx Dave.
House of Heart said:
Dahling Sheygoth, there seems to be some disgruntlement among your Hammies! I think they should come live with me for a while. I have lots of lettuce 🥬 !
Dearest, are you still in the clutches of Drac? He’s definitely got a way about him. I’m thinking if gathering my goth garb and returning to the other world , are you game? Love your post it’s amazing , love too the gowns and models made possible through the awesome gifts of dear One Eye! Your follow up is crazy good! Sending love and tattoo sleeves.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxccccc
Resa said:
Dahling PBH, RR, AGM Holly & Boogapony,
Psst… it’s me – One-Eye…. I had to sneak in past the Hammie Dudes.
They might end up Cossack dancing on me. Didn’t want to take the chance!
Adore you, dahling! xoxoxoxo
shehannemoore said:
I will drug their voddie and then you can sneak in, okay? x
Resa said:
Yes, I suppose that can work. They really are a vicious bunch of Cossack dancing Hamsters!!! xoxoxo
shehannemoore said:
I am terrified of them.
Resa said:
Yes…. I don’t know how you control them…. to the extent you do. Shhh….. shhh … okay i’m in….
House of Heart said:
They do love to Cossack dance don’t they! They are in a rebellious mood today! I hope to take them under my wing and soothe the little rascally hammies if Sheygothgirl will parcel them to me. I’m buying Hammie food and toys right now.
Dearest gothgirl has her hands full and the midnight hour is soon upon us. Shivers!
Adore you too meeces xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
Resa said:
So, will you be getting tiny little Hammiemocks for them? Meeces to Peeces!
Yes, that midnight hour comes arounds once a day, whether we want it or not!
I’m shivering, too! Hmm, of course it could be a side effect of getting my second shot, yesterday! YAY!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
House of Heart said:
Yay for the shot! I do hope any after effects are short lived. It’s worth it. I have been browsing Amazon for Hammiemocks , do you suppose Sheygothgirl was pulling my leg a bout actually sending them to me here in Florida? Sob. I will be prepared when they arrive. Got little hammie skirts and trousers.
Love ya Meeces!
xoxoxo
Resa said:
Not sure what’s going on?
Looks like Shey has them smuggling Vodka into the USA, & driving across the Atlantic.
The shot… I am thrilled… body is sore, but no headache or chest pain. That’s what one has to be on the look out for with the AZ! Once I get through the next few weeks….92% protected! I’ll still wear a mask!
House of Heart said:
Lol! That goth girls wild! By all means wear a mask out, I still do.
Two weeks. Your home free! xo
Resa said:
Yay!
92% for AZ against Delta variant.
xo
House of Heart said:
Fabulous. Our only hospital pts here with COVID are the unvaccinated. Sad.
Resa said:
It is sad. Manitoba’s Hospitals are filled with Hutterites, who due to religious convictions refuse to be vaccinated.
shehannemoore said:
Getting them in the box as we speak…..
Resa said:
LOL!!!! They might be getting Hammiemocks.
shehannemoore said:
Just get them some wheels and they will be fine….. Sure they will be stopped at customs and returned.
Resa said:
LOL!
So… the wheels are stuffed with? VODKA!!!!
shehannemoore said:
There could be pencils for you to draw with…
Resa said:
Yes…. but they won’t get busted for smuggling pencils! lol xoxo
shehannemoore said:
Reas.. how you gonna drink your voddie wi the dudes in a mask……. we need blog on this one x
Resa said:
I see! It’s blogdka time!
I can always drink wine!
shehannemoore said:
Re pencils …. It depends what ‘s in the lead….
Resa said:
OMG! What the hamster are they up to????
shehannemoore said:
I am parcelling the dudes up as we speak. Not that Drav comes by or anything but I wouldn’t like him to drink their blood. he did eye them up the other night. OOPS. I think we need to get back the Goth gear back out. I’ve mean into the Goth gear a lot lately. xxx
House of Heart said:
I hear you goth-girl ,I’m feeling the other world calling, we do love adventure! The midnight hour no??
shehannemoore said:
Bring it on. Meet yah there. x (Just getting the boots out the cupboard.)
shehannemoore said:
Resa, re what they are up to? You never know.
Resa said:
Dahling AGM Shey,
How lovely of you to make this post!
I’m so happy you came home! You’ve got a lot of gowns to model. Rebecca has a lot of Catwalks to direct, and I’ve got a lot of gowns to draw!!!!!
I know DracGoth has been sneaking up to your bedroom at 3 am. That’s fine, but you’ve lost a lot of weight from these trysts.
Yes, yes, the gowns look mahvelous on your raked body, but I worry!
Much love,
One-Eye xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxooocoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
shehannemoore said:
I couldn’t NOT put your post up my darling. I just needed a moment to do it! Moi? Let DracGoth sneak in at night??? When I am such a well behaved girl? ……. I am sure IT he does it is to.. uhm… admire the paintings on the wall. Much love back xxxxx
Resa said:
UH…HUH! 🙄😏
Yes AGM Shey is very well behaved!
SheyGoth is a rebel. If DracGoth is admiring the paintings on the walls, they must be nudes. Possibly nudes with tattoos, or wearing capes blowing in the wind, revealing an historic romantic nature!
Advice from a friend – don’t let the dudes find out. An en-masse vodka drunken cossack dancing on a body can be quite painful! DracGoth, you listening?
XOXOXOXOXO
shehannemoore said:
Well, of course they are that kind of painting. How did you guess?? Did DracGoth tell you?
nananoyz said:
Wonderful!!!
shehannemoore said:
Resa’s amazing. Such a talent and epic at keeping everyone going just now! xxxx
nananoyz said:
She is amazing!
shehannemoore said:
I know. I was gutted for her the other day not being able to get her hands on proper drawing pencils cos of everything going on but Timothy and Holly saved her. And I love the gowns she makes for charity.
bereavedandbeingasingleparent said:
SheyGoth does write the best historical romances ever. ❤️
shehannemoore said:
Gary…. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx You’re too kind. But that will spur me to get the rest of the edits done now on the new baby.
robbiesinspiration said:
A most entertaining post and its great to see Resa, Tim, and Holly all contributing. That red hair is brilliant.
shehannemoore said:
Always good to see Resa out in force, espesh with Tim and Holly. What a force to reckon with. Nice to see you Robbie. x
lampmagician said:
You are both Goth at Hearts ❤🥰🌹🌹
shehannemoore said:
Alaedin! You rumbled us. When I haven’t worn black glitter nail polish for years. (Still got the clothes and wear them now and then mind you!!!!)
lampmagician said:
Haha! Sorry, but I love the old Gothic styles. You will surely look brilliant in any clothes, my lovely Shey.
shehannemoore said:
Oh I love these styles too. I was always more of a Wednesday Addams girl growing up. xxx
mikesteeden said:
Two lovely talented ladies in one. I doesn’t get better than that. Regards, The Old Fool
shehannemoore said:
The ultra talented Mike. Great to see you. We did have fun on this post. Not that I did anything but rResa kept sending the drawings and we had such a laugh behind the scenes. x
mikesteeden said:
A happy post, a fine start to the day, Ms S.
shehannemoore said:
Well, we all need a laugh right now I’d say… Far as I know we’ve not been told we can’t do that.
catcavendish said:
Such talent. Beautiful designs and I love the magic trees – suitably spooky. Perhaps the hammies could go camping there on the night of the harvest moon. Who knows what might happen…
shehannemoore said:
And EVEN better, what might happen to them… Resa’s gown are lovely and she captures characters with the stroke of a pen. I have framed all my ladies that she’s very kindly and generously drawn for me. She’s one the reasons I went for a ball scene in the present book. Great to see you Cat xx

Reblogged this on Die Erste Eslarner Zeitung – Aus und über Eslarn, sowie die bayerisch-tschechische Region!.
Martina Ramsauer said:
I love your design Shehanne, but I very much hope that you have a certain comprehension that I have some difficulty following Rebecca’s and Resa’s catwalks!!
shehannemoore said:
LOL!!! They are epic. Of course the hamsters are now yicking about how it should have been a hamster walk. xxx
Martina Ramsauer said:
:):)
shehannemoore said:
xxxxxxx.
OIKOS™-Editorial said:
At first i want to apologize for the very late revisit, Shehanne! I hope you all are well, and the dudes also have a splendid life. Thank you for sharing, Resa’s wonderful work. I always regret that I am not a woman and that I can wear things like that for real. 😉 Have a beautiful week! All the best, Michael
shehannemoore said:
It is wonderful to wee you again. Missed you, Michael, BUT I see you have a new blog coming so…or so it says when i try to click on your link. Looking forward to that. Resa’s gown are the best. Indeed I dream in art gowns.
Pam Lazos said:
Thank God SheyGoth listened to reason! Great art , as always. The poor dudes, though. Worried about having their paws broken!😂
shehannemoore said:
As if such a thing would ever happen… I mean clearly I am the sort of person to listen to reason. Glad you liked the art gowns.
Pam Lazos said:
Ah, that you are, Lady Shey. Smart, fabulous, and always reasonable!!
shehannemoore said:
….. Love yah Pam, truly. YOU are a great lady. x xxxx
dgkaye said:
What a fabulous post! Resa’s gowns are absolutely gorgeous to look at, and I loved the story. I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to start calling you Sheygoth. I loveeeeeeeee the name! And dudes, perhaps you’re being a little mean to Resa? Just saying. Behave! I still love you though. Hugs ❤ xxx
shehannemoore said:
THEY want on the hamsterwalk of course. Please do call me SheyGoth. I love it. resa did the post cos I had said stuff about all my Goth clothes and boots! So there you go. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
dgkaye said:
Lmao, so fab! Oh yes I did call you SheyGoth on Twitter! LOL ❤ xxxxxxxxxxx
shehannemoore said:
Epic sistah. EPIC!!!!! xxxxxx
Dawn - The Sparkle Diaries. said:
Oh how I love this blog post, it’s just fabulous. I was carried away with the story, the beautiful illustrations, the music…all just wonderful, absolutely loved it. I can see you now with that beautiful hair flowing wild in the wind whilst wearing one of those gowns. The most gorgeous SheyGoth xxxx
shehannemoore said:
AW, you are too kind my lovely Dawn. Mind you the hair never EVER sits right end of. I gave up on that one long ago. Resa writes the most fabulous adventures for her models and gets the pencil out to draw them. I don’t know generally how she has the time but lately she has. Even when she is busy she is very generous with her drawings. So glad you enjoyed. I did love being part of a story for a change instead of giving it all to my heroines! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
MichaelStephenWills said:
Frightening….vodka and dancing is a step up. Cheers
shehannemoore said:
Lol, it is Michael. Great to see you. Been enjoying your Kinsale posts.
MichaelStephenWills said:
Thanks for the good word, Shehanne
shehannemoore said:
you had one today. It was lovely. Thank YOU x
Carol Balawyder said:
What a great opening line for this post, Shey. I love the story Resa wrote for you. What an honor!
shehannemoore said:
Awww Carol, I have all her drawings she has done for me framed. She is so kind to me. I had said something to her re my Goth clothes–some quite ancient. And we had such a giggle behind the scenes and then she did this fabulous post. I am beyond honored She’s just amazing, pure and simple. xxxxxxxxxx

shehannemoore said:
Mon ami, je ne m’ennuie jamais avec les gens négatifs. La vie est trop courte pour ne pas la vivre. Tout l’amour pour vous et les vôtres.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Carolyn Haynes said:
You are most prolific writer. I absolutely love your stories. It’s been such a fun journey getting to know you via WordPress. 😃💕
shehannemoore said:
Carolyn, you have no idea how much I appreciate your comment. It is very kind of you. I absolutely love your blog. Always uplifting and beautiful and obviously dedicated to the memory of a very special man. Keep up all your wonderful work.xxxxxx
Carolyn Haynes said:
Thank you so much for your kind comments. I truly enjoy your blog also. I am always taken away on an adventure and return so much happier. You’re amazing. 😃💕
shehannemoore said:
Carolyn, looking at all you’ve done in life. YOU are the one who is amazing. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. The dudes would love you be their guest for that reason actually. They have just hesitated to ask but will understand if you can’t. xxxxxxxxxxx
the dune mouse said:
what a great way to spend morning with coffee and such an entertaining story with illustrations! Hamsters get over yourselves!! I pale in comparison but thanks for your visit dear Shey!! I’m still here ( I think).
shehannemoore said:
So wonderful to see you here Cybele. I am always honored to have you. Resa did a fabulous job with this. She’s a super talent xxxx
maulana baba said:
nice to read aricle.
shehannemoore said:
Thank you so much. The story bit was written by a very talented costume designer who also makes gowns for charity auctions in her spare time . It really is nice of you to take the time to comment. I’m thrilled you enjoyed this.
jeanleesworld said:
I have to be honest–Hamstah Splendor was my favorite. All the flowers make the gown a natural beauty! I hope Silv wasn’t too jealous. 🙂 xxxxxxxx
shehannemoore said:
I didn’t tell her……. I thought it best. I didn’t want Hamstah Splendor having her eyes torn out. . . . . .
jeanleesworld said:
Ha ha! No, let’s not pass word on, then… 🙂
shehannemoore said:
My lips are sealed/
D. Wallace Peach said:
That was fun, Shey. I’m glad the dudes cooperated. Wonderful drawings and a fun story. I’m glad you found your girls, gowns, and colors in the end. ❤
shehannemoore said:
They have mixed reactions to Resa because she drew a hamster in a gown for them once, as you can see. Alas there is just no pleasing all of them though. Especially as she writes these AGm model stories and they are not AGM models.
D. Wallace Peach said:
I did see the hamster gown. It was fabulous. I can imagine that they want another one. Lol.
shehannemoore said:
Yes… you can well imagine how they would ALL want one. xxxx
