"Do I look ok?"


This images are of prefire, wet painted greenware

The internal dialogue of self image, comes up in various degrees of understanding and depth, for most women, at various stages of our lifetime.
The weight issue I have been dealing with for so long keeps surfacing and it is partly to do with self image, and much to do with many other elements of emotional status.
Today it popped up in the studio with these two whimsical pieces asking "Do I look OK?"
Realizing that everywoman asks that question regardless of how thin or fat she is, how beautiful and young, or old and worn she is, is not something that happened today.
Working on these two women with many faults, assymetries and insecurities, is one more step towards self acceptance and enjoying my life.
