ABOUT: I use props like clothing items sparingly. Then anything worn or held becomes significant. Also, I believe that those elements influence the model to pose in certain ways. Here, we have just a belt and boots. Both are constricting, yet the rest of her is free.

DESCRIPTION: My model, A, embodies the steampunk image in the way she dresses and presents herself. She loves the fantasy element that it offers. Responsive to my models, their interests and what they bring to a session, I wish to bring this into the art that I create.

DESCRIPTION: An intentionally provocative pose, and I wanted a dramatic form. This was part of a series of watercolors where attention to composition was at the front of my focus. Each object plays a part in the composition, but also lends to the content of the painting.

DESCRIPTION: The colors red and dominated the colorscape, so the title seemed apt. It’s both a provocative and defensive pose. I like that contrast.

DESCRIPTION: She rests on a circular window sill, and the form suggested a moon. Hence the title. I love the relaxed, lounging pose. She’s so at ease with herself.
