Description She thinks her honesty
redeems her...She thinks
telling the truth
will change the
facts

She thinks confessing her crimes
and giving you their brutal details
will change everything
But
Honesty has never
changed
the truth.

"Argument for Absolution"
by Merritt Malloy

i like the brightness and sort of over-saturated feel of this shot. couple with the pose and downward glance, it makes a good modern emotive portrait

you look like a porcelain doll
stark but confused
strong but breakable
thoughtfull but dreamy
very yourself but still someone else...

For God's sake... you tend to be too beautiful for your own artistic good! LOL! I always have such a hard time getting past it to really have a good look at what you've created, haha. Once again, the decrIPTION is of great importance here. Your emotion... expression... manner... etc are all perfect for that poem. I could imagine no picture capturing those words any better visually than this one. You seem to have capture some guilt and shame yet it's somehow quite innocent and appologetic too. But to be both guilty AND innocent looking??? I will not figure out how you captured it... but you did. Bravo

very well matched to the prose you picked out. I might have cropped a little higher, but the expression if outstanding.

Wow its been a while since I have been able to take a real look at these photos, but I think I like this onee the best of the new ones. You can really see the guilt, but it almost looks forced like she(you) dont really mean but know it wont matter to the recipient. Just my perception (uless of course someone else beat me to it) Keep em coming gorgeous!

The blue and red are having a very bright battle on your sad face. I am much liking this picture. The colors do remind me of the Double Cola sign.

calivinguy [2003-05-08 09:07:23 +0000 UTC]

Well, if you insist. I'm here. I saw your artwork before, but I promised that I was on vacation, and I didn't want people to think me a liar. Of course, I commented on trip's "Pop", so how busy could I be? That's a story that takes a while to read. I can be impressed with your art within the first glance. As usual, you capture with words a picture and a picture with words. Symbiosis. You're such a kick. I love your stuff. Even when I don't always comment, I always love your stuff. But I'll try to comment more, if I can.

xenossonex [2003-05-07 09:51:26 +0000 UTC]

You can REALLY see the emotion in your face in this one...and if you hadn't told us what it was i think we could have guessed that this was a laydee who wanted confession....cos' it's not quite a "loss" pic like you have lost something (loved one etc.) it has that sort of sly smile to it too....i can't really explain it but it definatly goes with the confession title you have gave it....That little quote also has that Taoist feel to it....with the last line "Honesty has never changed the truth."....Love it!...

Nice job again with the photography AND the little quote that fits SOOO well....

Take Care...
