Combining photography and cartoon art is AMAZING to me!!
This is what creativity is all about!!!
the mind of an artist runs vividly deep. to think. to dream. to create. to bring to life. these are my inspirations ♥

The Struggle
daylight hits her face and she rises
....it's morning again
a plate, a shower, and then a thought
she dreads the leaving but hates to stay
cause its another day of dragging along
another day of just making it
a job, a class, and maybe an art
"im like a robot - there is no change"
"and this whole life arranged is just
another way to keep us all at pace"
the poor, the weak, the Jones
our daily survival fight in society
leave those with big priorities
gasping for air to breathe
a fall, recession, and then depression
people wishing they were above
and for those who are in love
the stepping stone gets harder
the bliss, the loss, and then a choice
hearts or dreams? it ain't all what it seems
reality, as she lays down to sleep
noodles and water as her daily treat
no money. no lovher. no sympathy
for she chose to live independently
the struggle.

The Evil Doer
the quiet onethe sly one
she wouldnt harm
a butterfly
until you crossed her wrong
and she gets that glare
look in her eye
she lit her stoge and smiled
you shouldve known her mind
- not quite right
cause all the while shes
simply thinkin'
of how to send you to
the light
it only takes one word
it only takes a threat
it only takes a feeling
and your ass is set
she'll burn you with her
horrid thoughts
you'll feel her
in your sleep
she's standing up above you
watching
yeah, the shxt's that deep
you think it's all a nightmare
but she still wants you
alive
to stab her pain in the
heart
of your soul
with that demon eye
the damaging power
of her mind is like
a red, hot skewer
the quiet one
the sly one
the ways of an
evil.doer

Color: MARY ELLEN MARK
While she was known for her raw and uncut Portraiture, she was also known for her use of color. Mary Ellen Mark has a way of capturing color similar to William Eggleston. . Only her subject matter is more "unique".
A body of work that has moved and inspired me is her work from Bombay, India entitled Faulkland Road: Prostitutes of Bombay. I did a report on these photographs, their "exploitation" and her use of color. I was so moved by her use of pattern, decisive moment, color, flash, and subject matter. While Mary Ellen Mark was known to take risque pictures, Faulkland Road was probably her most controversial.
She took to Bombay with her camera and for months she photographed the brothels, their young prostitutes, and the lives of the transsexual prostitutes. It took her weeks to gain their trust and she went back more than once to do so. A lot of these girls are between 12-18yrs of age and at the time, homosexuality was still taboo, so critiques automatically called this art pure exploitation. .
However I saw and still see more to it. . And I hope you do, too.
