I wish I could say that this photo was easy to do..but it wasn’t! / While it appears that I simply smeared my lipstick, it’s a bit more complicated than that. I started out by converting it to a B&W-blue filter-then curving it using the red channel only. I then blew it up to about 300%..and airbrushed the dark red paint on..(no less than 200 agonizing brush strokes!) / It was grueling-but fun.

Self Portrait / Alright I want to warn you all ! (Warning) lol I am currently learning how to do self portraits so this may be a little rough around the edges if you know what I mean, I don’t normally photograph people especially not myself, but here I am trying to go for it… Hope to learn lots from all of this work, The work has all been done by me. I used the timer on the camera, which is a Kodak V1003 digital zoom 3x
It’s not easy striking a pose on a 10 second timer / (and throwing your heart into it!) but I think / I pulled it off… Happy (early) Valentine’s Day to you all. ;)
Can you believe this started out being a photo of my face?! I added so many layers/FX/filters & brushes & before I knew it, / I’d turned into this. I decided to keep it. ;) / / / The before shot / /

I am still working on the other images in this series. I like challenging myself in new ways, with my self-portraits. And i thought it would be interesting to see if i could make it look like i was interacting with myself . . . in some way. I shot this series against a green screen. The background was taken from a photo-shoot i did at an industrial site in Seattle, Washington. The watchman was kind of enough to let me onto the grounds and gave me a tour and all access pass with my camera. I wanted to convey the extreme sadness i feel with manic depression. Over the years i have discovered that sadness is often anger, spread really thin, masquerading as melancholy. Anger is an emotion i have a very difficult time allowing myself to feel and express, i often repress it. As a child i was not allowed to express my feelings or my anger. There is a detachment that comes with sadness, a disconnect from the self, from the world . . . BUT i am in a good place at the present moment and i am getting better at managing the emotional tidal waves that manic depression brings. / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-— / You might also like . . . / / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-— / browse Jaeda’s photographic art by category: / dreamscapes, artistic nudes, couples, glamour, erotica, conceptual, sensual, portrait, spiritual, survivor art / /
Rest now, my youth, under this hieroglyph, / This figured seal of silence; do not start / Up once more in agony and grief. / Sing, hidden bird, sing mercy and relief / To wanderers in the darkness of the heart. (James McAuley. Texture by Puzzleteam)
