Coolest thing anyone has ever said about my work
After I posted up my last set of images to various communities I got a few messages about what the story was when it came to the shot titled "Unclean". Some people thought she had murdered someone, sliced off her own breast, or was hiding something. So I posted it on MM and asked for theories on what people saw. One guy not only gave an interpretation of the shot, but of my entire portfolio. It completely blew me away, because not only was he correct, but he made me realize a few things about myself as an artist.

"Your work focuses on the spiritual side of the model as art. The images are replete with references and keys of a search for a higher plan and perfection. Your god is Art. Your salvation is the striving to create the perfect, and the model often searches in vain for the approval of the god of ART, approval that you also seek.

"UNCLEAN is your homage to your Christian (probably catholic) background. It is also you. The artist as the unworthy and repentant sinner. You can not look into the eyes of god, and the blood of your lamb is needed to keep on trying. Your image is of the realization of inability of reaching the perfection and salvation that you know perfect art would bring. The image is your way of saying we are all humbled and unclean and unworthy to be artists."
