Artist's Comments

This is one of my favorite drawings I've done... ever.

This was, above all, influenced by Tori Amos, and her split personalities from her album American Doll Posse.

But, this is me paying thanks to ~trashydevil for not only inspiring me artistically, but she got me hooked on the fantastic talents of Tori. Thanks, Kristin. :smooch:

She has 5 personalities, and I'm going to write something I found on each one (Left to right)

Clyde: Clitorides
All works of art start as potential. Similarly, all relationships start as potential. When I meet a person I try and see not their mask, with it’s defenses, but what’s underneath. I get accused of refusing to acknowledge who a person is choosing to be right now. When that person is arrogant or rude or selfish then my friends say, "Clyde!!!!!! THIS is what this LOSER is about." But I say, "Hold on people, this is only what this person THINKS they are about." So this so called Loser person is confused. But if no one sees their potential then they may not ever see it themselves, and that would be tragic.

Santa: Sanatorium
Beauty. What is that to you?
A) Architecture?
B) The light on the water turning it into aquamarine?
C) Another woman's face or hair or figure that you quietly crave for 30 seconds?
Passion. Are you passionate about anything? What do you see when you look in the mirror? Stop. Don’t turn away. Stay a while. Let’s look closer. No. You are not allowed to find the faults first, not in my game. We will find the Beauty first.

Tori: Terra-tories
My eyes burn from listening. I cannot only be the small sum of my experiences but must be a channel for those that I have never had and maybe never will. Otherwise I can only hear the music through my finite human filter instead of hearing independent frequencies. Frequency and tone are autonomous and of the multiverse not just of my meager knowing. We can transcribe musical experience from the multiverse if we can be exactly that --- perceptive scribes and co-creators instead of needing to be the only creator, how lonely.

Isabel: Historical
There are a few ways to develop your vision of life. I document. I could be documenting you… Do I document truth? I document what I see. How others view the world. This is how I have come to know the world. The place I hold in a group of women is that of a Lens. A lens that records an actual happening. Objectivity can only be attained if you are open to another perception, even one that is contrary to your own. I will endeavor to present perceptions that I feel are worth your time.

Pip: Expiratorial
Dark Energy. It can be found in the Observable Universe. Found in ratios of 75% more than any other substance. Dark Energy. It can be found in religious extremists, in cheerleaders. To come to the conclusion that Dark signifies mean and malevolent would then define 75% of the Universe as an evil force. Alternatively, to think that some cheerleaders don’t have razors in their snatch is to be foolishly unarmed.

There's the American Doll Posse, for you.

Personally, my favorite of them all is Pip. :)
