There is an interesting story behind this composition,
and remember the beautiful one that you are".
There is an interesting story behind this composition,
something that touched me in more ways than one, deeply.
I can't reveal the story yet as
I'm waiting for the band giver to return!
A little up-date for any reader wondering.
This post is one that touches me deep as I said, it is about
body image, a subject I researched for my
art college studies. Now as an 'older woman'
I can ponder the subject from a different
perspective and how it affects
me personally!
The images above are two photos,
the underneath one is of myself merged with
a close-up of coloured glass droplets
after using the opaque tool.
I have transformed myself into something
other, there is something mysterious
and magical about this, it's like dressing up in childhood!
I can be who I want to be!
- "If I knew what the picture was going to be like I wouldn’t make it. It was almost like it was made already, the challenge is more about trying to make what you can’t think of."

so intriguing, one can see there is a statement, a thought, a question, a story within it.
Art is so freeing, no?
