self portrait 10: hiding

self portrait 10 :hiding

 

in wooden box: acrylic paint, bracelet from india, collaged match box, wool, collaged paper, sparkle paint, stamps, bead, shell, rock, marbles, glass globules, photograph (of me. the reason my face looks "white" is because i am wearing white face paint.....to accentuate the "hiding"), plastic berries, skull

 

14" X 11" X 3 "

 

this self portrait did not turn out quite the way i wanted. what did i what..now i am not sure....it has all the elements i planned on using..it has the lime green paint i use in all the backgrounds of my self portrait.s (as a unifying element) .it has me (LOL!).... but still......

 

the sides are all painted but are not show in this photograph. i tried to take a photo of this at an angle so you could see the sides, but that didn't work out.

on the sides are "stamp" faces and green glass globules. on the top are three black marbles.

the inside has collaged faces and hanging down under the bracelet ( which i bought in india) is a collaged match box that i made.

 

anyway...i decided to post it and see what you, my dear flickr friends, thought.

 

maybe i should just trash it?????

 

added: thank you all my dear flickr friends for your encouraging words.

i will not trash it :)
