Me Myself and I by Laurie

Used Hannah, obviously and the feathers plus some mask photos of my own. PS4 - many layers and layer masks. Plus blending modes. I think it's her eyes that get me.


other sizes: small medium original auto

WOW for me too. The stark contrasts really grab you and the eyes hold you there. Normally I dislike tears coming from eyes but in this case, the tear nicely compliments the ear ring. This is one powerful image.--skunk

In a way, a portrait of bi-polar Hannah. It is a wonderful use of the image. I am anxious to get her response. And yes, the eyes reflect the beauty and horror of her life--mental illness without loss of intelligence is a profound drama.
Her writing talents are astonishing.

Wow, the mask images just get better and better. If it weren't for the highlight on the nose and side of the main mask I can do a negative mask reversal, like eyes looking back into a mask from the front. So many ways to work this mask theme here. Your blending work is very well done and again conjures my favorite theme of where does the mask start or end and the face begin and end. The eyes have it in this one! Very dramatic lighting like some Hitchcock flick, maybe, Three Faces of Eve, plays out here...party goes on!
