I enjoy modelling in a wide variety of settings, and for different Artists. To me, Art is fulfilling both our desires and the real. It is a place where inner worlds can be expressed in conjunction with the outer world!
Like a fulfilled wish.
Seeing paintings by Gauguin and VanGogh when I was little showed me how to see the world! It is magical.
For me modelling is a very exciting part of Art. It is being the enlivened body or material for an Artist to work with, entering their creative life and their imagination.
I was a painter before I ever modelled. I love painting colourful images of wonderful things.
This photographic image to me looks like 'The Queen of the Fairies'. The angles in this pose captivate me. The Artists set this image and positioned me like a doll. It surprised me on viewing it.
So unexpected!
I was asked to pick an image that best expresses myself. I feel here the Artists have captured the simple and the complex story. Something real and also imagined, a little surreal or distorted. The pose was not naturalistic or easy to maintain.
I love theatre and do stage performances, both with a black guitar I lug round open mics and also I write and perform live theatre, poetry and storytelling in public.
