Quick value study sketch. I think this may become one of my next watercolors. This was a bright, sunny day and the shapes of these barns creates a scene that caught my eye immediately.

 

Hopefully coming soon . . .

Hannah Bernstein - Lady Macbeth

 

Classical by inspiration, but in fact some kitsch decorating a cheap restaurant. And 'study' implies some preparation, arrangement - this was a momentous snap of detail that caught my eye. But BW makes everything look 'classic', doesn't it? :)

A black Bear comes with it's own public health warning (And ladies that's carry Bear Spray not Hair Spray!!) ;0)

 

Taken in a hurry in a slight snow flurry :0)

Photo recycled for Our Daily Topic: Self Portrait

 

I hope that everyone realizes that the middle photo has been squashed and my thighs aren't really that fat nor my feet that long! The two end photo are unaltered. And yes, my calfs really are that big. That's from years of racewalking.

Some times we need to stop and look for the light, not the toys we use to capture it with.

this was taken in the round mirror in my room during a study break the other day. i liked how old school it feels. the mirror is dirty though, which really sucks.

Utrecht University Library. Two years since I last visited it, it still is a great place for studying and working.

What good boys - taking the time to do some studying.

Ioannina, Greece - January 2018

Study of an apartment building in downtown Albuquerque

An investigative study into the ways in which certain minorities express themselves, in this case, it’s Drag Queens. Drag is an art and refined skill, but most importantly, drag is a way for one to express themselves through the beauty of a performative identity. Having spoken to over 100 queens over Instagram, I have discovered so much about the culture; such as the fact that there are categories of queens such as comedy queens, spooky queens, club kids, pageant and the most dominant being look queens. It’s fair to say that drag is not something you’d class as ‘normal’, but that certainly doesn’t devalue the significance it truly holds. Breaking gender stereotypes is such a vital way for society to progress. Offensive ideologies such as sexism, homophobia and even transphobia seem to be alleviated as soon as one gets into drag. A man dressed as a women, (usually) part of the LGBT community and clothed in a plethora of elegant attires is so strongly standing for those who are socially repressed in nowadays society for the way in which they identify. Talking to Dixey the queen, she opened my eyes to the idea that “drag is there for those who need that boost of inspiration, that kick of confidence or stance of pride. I live unapologetically and standing on that stage with my double Ds and 30 inch wig makes me feel powerful. but i don’t do it for my own ego, I do it for those who need need the encouragement to be who they want. Yeh, I look like a fool up there, but when my head is high and the crowds are cheering, someone in the world is feeling like they can conquer anything and that is why I get up every morning”. (Ran out of word count - will post my essay soon)

Color study using the Zorn palette. Oil on unstretched canvas.

Needs more study, likewise more shell.

A beloved cannot ever escape the love that pursues them. Reject it, run from it, deny it, try to deafen it with the false love of another, but the love will remain. The lie of unworthiness is a curse, but you are loved regardless. False love possesses. Real love frees. But some spend a lifetime running...

 

I'm not sure why I'm posting these tonight at 4:21AM but I guess I've been thinking alot about Gomer. I wish she had a better name and I don't have to time to go through the story, but it can be read in the book of Hosea.

 

And this is Lauren. We didn't start by shooting the story of Hosea and Gomer, but as soon as I had her run that's who she became. I may turn this into an actual piece but for now, this is my starting vision of her and that story.
