Faces, self portraits in Photo Booth

Faces, self portraits in Photo Booth, originally uploaded by textrix.

I’m having way too much fun with Photo Booth. Thanks to Isabella Rossellini, as well, for some brilliant inspiration. I saw her speak at the Unique Lives series last night, and was blown away – by her brilliance and humour, and irreverence. She talked about how modeling isn’t about just sitting there and being pretty. It’s conveying an emotion, creating an emotion, for other people to understand and feel. Playing in Photo Booth tonight, as I often do, this came to mind and pushed the faces to a place I hadn’t found yet.

I’m really liking this place. I think there may be a painting or two here. At least a few drawings already!
