Would the second one be The Star Of Kazan? I never finished it, but it sounds quite similar and that would probably be what happened.

After looking it up on Wikipedia, I am certain that I was right and it was The Star of Kazan.

Yes! The second one was The Star of Kazan. Holy butts, thank you so much!! I'm going to go buy these two books the second I google enough to find out what the first one was. I can't believe I forgot, Eva Ibbotson isn't exactly a common name. Shame to discover she died, though.

Can anyone help me out with that first one?

The colors of paint thing reminds me of a book my sister read a couple years ago called Saffy's Angel. I haven't read it, but the plot summary I've read looks like it might be your book.

Oh my god, that's it. Those are the two books! Thank you so much, I could kiss you both!!!
