Angelique: White Wing Memoirs and nostalgia

Well guess what, I was wrong about how many Angelique OVAs there were.  This one is my favorite by far.  I'm so glad I played the games because it brings up and even shows cut scenes from the games.  It's so weird how seamlessly the games and OVAs weave together.  There are only two episodes and it's more like a walk down memory lane for those who played the RPG for the PC-FX... why did I stop playing that one?  ah, I hit the mid boss and suddenly I was too weak.  I refuse to go grinding for levels.  Anyway, there really isn't a story and it just feel like I'm missing an episode but I'm thinking there's still only two.  I really like the outfit redesigns for Trois.  Luva got an overhaul, that's for sure.  In fact, his outfit reminds me of something from my childhood but I can't remember what exactly.  What really struck me about this OVA is the nostalgia it unlocked.  I've watched the ending ten times at least.  The part where it's scrolling past Oscar and Julius with the music really hit me hard with feelings of false nostalgia.  The whole day I was in a daze trying to remember what it had reminded me of.  The thing about the Trois designs is that they all look like they should be in a certain type of room.

One with checkered floors, pillars and palm branches. I had to go looking through the internet to find what it was that their designs reminded me of.  It's weird though because to me, it's more Greek.  At first I thought it was Dutch Baroque or even Renascence but I keep going back to the Greek mixed with Art Nouveau.  I have these strong memories and feelings associated with rooms that look like this for some reason.  Almost like I've been in one or seen it somewhere in my childhood.  Suddenly I remembered that my dad use to show us art films, he was especially interested in Computer Animation.  It was brand new at the time.  For some reason this OVA just reminds me of sitting down with two in particular.

Beyond the Mind's Eye and Gate to the Mind's Eye.  I remember watching them over and over as a young girl.  I loved art films like these with no words or story.  Just art.  My dad had a lot of movies like these.  It's been forever since I've seen these and this little OVA unlocked that memory for me.  how weird is that?  So I'm sitting here now trying to draw out what I feel.  Trying to combine all these memories into one piece and I'm not use to drawing scenery or backgrounds and I'm certainly not use to putting characters in it.  I'm liking how it's turning out so far but who knows.  I might not end up coloring it at all.
