Most of these are Suicide Girl images. None of these belong to me but are too beauitful not to share.

Here are a few images that I have been saving. I work with images alot and when I come across a picture which I feel encompasses my personality I like to keep a record of it. Here are a few from my archive- with the particular common thread of body art.

This stems back to the origonal reason of why I got into costume. I have always loved working around the body and subsequently most of my art has been centered around this. I believe the naked body is such a pure form that it is a great blank of paper for any artist. My facination with tattoos breaches this pure form but has such a strong identity message that it thrills me.

I have not yet been able to convince myself to get a tattoo. I remember a Vogue article which said that a tattoo is somebody elses permanent mark on you; I find this slightly disturbing. I can understand none artistic people who admire the art having anothers design, but an artist not taking control of his identity is another matter entirely. If I ever breach the gap between here and an inked skin then it will definatly be my unique design.

Finding uniqueness is harder than you think.
