Windy Angels, I love this picture. From a distance the face is there, but not there. Faded, but it is there if you look closely. Some of the face is covered up, like a mask. To me it expresses loss and shame. Often we try to cover our own Shame with a mask. The problem is that shame has a way of appearing (showing), despite our efforts to hide it.

This picture is the first pic I chose as a favorite when I first joined Flickr. I thought it was a painting until I realized that Ingrid had actually painted her own face! To me it is powerful and emotional. I want to paint my face, too, and see what surfaces! The face in this pic looks old and worn, like an antique piece of furniture whose paint is peeling off. Dry, and crumbling down like an old abandoned structure falling apart. I often feel old, worn, and abandoned, as I peel away the layers of pain and suffering. I'm always afraid I will "fall apart."
Nothing here yet.
