I got my lip repierced for the 4th (!) time a couple of weeks ago. It's STILL swollen on the inside but luckily it's not too visible on the outside...

Main eason for taking a photo though is because of my distinct lack of make up. I'm trying to decide if my eyes look prettier with or without it. I think it makes me look more stern. :/ Additionally, aren't my tan lines so attractive?

This will probably be my last update (not that you'd notice :|) for a while, as on Wednesday I'm moving into my own place! I have no idea when we'll be getting the internet so I'll be back.... at some point.

Just a quick self portrait as I never really do them. Tripods aren't tall enough for me so I can never compose well!

I know it's off centre but I like that...

uploaded colour and black and white because I don't know which is best.

The face, the lips.

...tremble, as it rips...

Response to the upclose shots seen in David Lynch's films. I'm aware the heavily airbrushed skin isn't to everyones tastes, but it is intentional and in my humble opinion, I think it works well.

Considering using this as a final piece for my Photography unit.

Sixth Form was cancelled today so had a play around with some self portraits.

Not much to say on this one really... was inspired by 'Memoirs of a Geisha' (hence the title). I did originally have the face much paler but decided a little bit of colour worked better. :)

my fake eyes... do you know what i am?
soon you will become me... give up everything,
and become my blood, my flesh, start anew the tragedy.
the innocent girls, faces laden with thick make-up.
yes, drink this down... your bait...
don't you want to become one with me?

to become just like me, this elegantly refined, beautiful madame tarantula.

is your reflection in the mirror ugly? i will give you an iron brand to blotch out that face.
our bodies have become ghosts, we waited for fallen angels.
resurrect this buried tale through your despair.
as you let loose an erotic, dirty scream you are reborn.

into this elegently refined, beautiful madame tarantula.
