I haven't been updating much, I'm in Toronto to do Aerial Training and I'm not really self photographing much.

I like this piece because it's complicated, and very reflective of my life. The unkept pits combined with the mask is a great illustration of how I balance vanity with being a free spirit, the femininity of the towel on my head (and the fact that I actually have hair now), the bruise.. which is actually from aerial training, but you never really know where those bruises come from do you. I like how my bicep, which is unflexed, gives an air of strength where otherwise the fact that I am injured will likely give a person the sense of defeat when they see the photo. My eyes are dark and tattered in flesh but bright, aware, and focused. It's just really moving to me.

I lowered the curves and upped the contrast of this photo considerably, and added a light diffuse glow over it, I felt that this conveyed a feeling of still being dirty, even though I'm clean.

Anyway. That's me right now. Sorry to be away.

That's you, and you're beautiful.
You are really preety.
The true beauty of a woman is often accentuated by her mystery. Don't you think? I like all the ways you don't fit a mold, it's what makes you unique, talented, interesting & fun.

Take care.
