The Basics[/font][/size]
Name: Splattershade
Nickname/Alias:Splatter, Splat
Species: Unicorn
Gender: Female
Age: 14
Group: Good pony
Occupation: Artist (Specifically painting, but does other stuff too)
Appearance[/font][/size]
Fur/Mane/Tail: Her fur... is a color that's hard to pin down. It's almost always covered in trademark "Splatters" of paint, and occasionally even designs she paints on herself when no canvas is available. It's safe to assume that her fur is white, but she hates the idea of leaving it as a blank canvas. Miraculusly, her cutie mark always shows through the paint.
Her horn pokes through her long black mane, which falls around her face haphasardly. More often than not, the tips of her mane is colored by some kind of paint getting into it. The same goes for her tail, which has been actually carefully styled to look like the tip of a paintbrush, complete with more paint splatters.
Clothes/Accessories: She does occasionally wear an artist's beret, especially when she's 'in the zone'. She almost always carries a saddlebag with her (if that's what they're refereed to as
), filled with painting suppliesCutie Mark: Her cutie mark is a painting palette, representing her love of painting and art. She obsesses over her work, and loves to see her work make people smile.
Overview: She is slightly shorter, and with a lighter build than other ponies, but she also is rather quick, and can move about rather excitedly when inspiration strikes.
Personality[/font][/size]
Personality Description: Splattershade loves art, and she loves how her work makes people smile. She will never miss a chance at inspiration, and will often find herself ignoring the task at hand to complete a painting. She can be a bit obsessive when she wants to get something done, even if it isn't painting, and she refuses to quit even impossible tasks. She is the faithful and kind type, always looking to find a way to make someone smile, but she will become deeply hurt if someone doesn't like her artwork, moreso if they insult it.

History[/font]
History: Splattershade was born to a very formal, stuffshirt and elegant family in Canterlot. They were always trying to teach her about proper manners, elegance, and grace. That's good and all, but it just seemed like a bunch of rules to Splat. She wanted to be expressive, and secretly discovered her love of art in private.
One day, she simply slipped off to Ponyville. Sure, she still writes to her family, who are still upset at her leaving, but they're at least happy that she's happy where she is. She could finally stop feeling so 'naked' and almost literally dive right into her work.
She suddenly found herself painting absolutely everything that inspired her. She almost couldn't help herself, especially when she was inspired. She just loves showing her work to people and watching them smile because of it. She loves the free expression and emotion that goes into her art, and wants to share those feelings with absolutely everyone.
Before long, her paintings simply filled her small home, it was hard for her to deal with the idea, but she needed to get rid of some... So finally, she opened up an art gallery/shop in the main shopping area of Ponyville, complete with a personal studio upstairs. Now Splattershade has everything she wanted. A home, income, and the chance to express herself and paint all she wants... Well, if it wasn't so lonely up in her studio with just her and paint...
