What do you want to be when you grow up ?

I'm totally clueless

Through A Glass Darkly

When I was making this collage my intention was to portray stunning women surrounded by beauty and gold. Sometimes a collage will take you to unexpected places. I have found the best way to go is towards acceptace. Perhaps beauty and gold are mysteriously seductive, seen through a glass darkly ?

Who is wearing the Mask ?

The Man In The Mirror

After this piece was finished all I could think was, " It's ugly ".....The next day I went down into the art room to paint over the whole thing....Then, I don't know, I just started to mess with it, and much to my delight a certain dark beauty began to emerge.....Maybe no one will like this ?.....I'm feeling kind of protective : like, " Awwwww-Have a heart ".  Innocent until proven guilty, if you follow.
