ARTIST AND MODEL

(Or, how I tried to inspire some painters, photographers and poets)

Almost every photograph that you have seen on the rest of my website was taken by Arch, who is my husband/photographer/editor/webmaster. The following pages, however, are devoted to work by other artistic people who have allowed me to help their creative efforts by using my body as a subject in drawings, photographs and even poetry.

They include semi-professional or professional photographers, art students, serious artists, and others who have seen something in me that ignites a spark to their expressive desires. Most have their e-mail address included, so if you like their work, drop them a line and say so. Creative people generally enjoy hearing about reaction to their efforts. Check the links at the bottom of this page to see larger versions of these photos and others.

If you are an artistic type of person, and would be interested in creating something based on your image of me, then drop me a line and tell me what you have in mind. You never can tell, I might be equally interested.

Follow each of the thumbnail links below to check out each artist's images of me.

Poetry:

I see you in the park

Erect and akimbo

Thank God it isn't dark

You please my senses so

How quiet the light, denuded of its shouting and clanging pigments. Only whispers come to my eyes.Yet, it is the whisper, lightly brushing the skin with it's warm fluid air, that catches my attention. From your figure, in black and white, there is no lack of SENSATION. Thank you for your art. Thank you for whispering in our eye.

Eve, Empress of Eden.

Camouflaged with paradise

Exposed, but well hidden

With true fantasies do entice
