sections from SELF PORTRAIT : OCTOBER

here are a few photos from my self portrait collage i did in october 2006. I wanted to create a scene that made people recall memories or experiences within themselves. Art should be an experience between the artist and the viewer. I find it easier to relate to the viewers when I put myself in front of the camera lens. The day I took these photos, i was feeling like an old lady from the 1960's, dont ask me why. I am a sober person so drugs do not play any part in the eccentric, random being that I am. If i feel something or get an idea in my head, no matter how weird or unusual, i have to see what that idea would look like on paper, so I make art!
