Where's Lynn?

I know, big surprise im MIA. I've had good reason but I desperately need to update. So I recently lost someone very important, got 3 jobs, got my heart broken by another cowardly idiot, gained weight, got a new view of the world, got depressed, found stuff to be happy about, and caught up with my laundry. Needless to say I now have tons of life experience material to pull from for my projects! ^_^
I've been sketching, re-finding myself. I noticed my style had changed a bit. Well Im working on paintings but my junkie lovesick cupcake its currently my focus. Its pretty awesome visual personification of someone from my dating past. I wwould like to finish soon because 1) I would like to entertain the little but much appreciated audience I have and 2)my dying to be married cupcake is gonna be so nasty on big canvas (can't wait to work on it).
Ok so here's a little of the latest from my sketch book. Let me know what u think or write me random Q&A.

El Mes De Amor!!!!

February is known for Valentine's Day, hence, also being known as the month of love! If you haven't heard that then get with it! Why just have a day when we can be about the LOVE all month. Not just love for other people but for the things we love also. I thought this would be great time to show my love for great artists and most definitely my favorite, Frida Kahlo! She was did tons of self-portraits and the best were in a surrealist style. She used her canvases like dairy pages in a book.

BIO TIME: Frida Kahlo de Rivera (July 6, 1907 – July 13, 1954; born Magdalena Carmen Frieda Kahlo y Calderón) was a Mexican painter, born in Coyoacán. Perhaps best known for her self-portraits, Kahlo's work is remembered for its "pain and passion", and its intense, vibrant colors. Her work has been celebrated in Mexico as emblematic of national and indigenous tradition, and by feminists for its uncompromising depiction of the female experience and form.

With that said you guys should tell me what you love! You never know, could be interesting enough for me to blog about it. ^_^

Out of Hibernation!

I wish I could tell you some story about how I turned into a bear & that I've been hibernating which would explain why I haven't posted.... but I can't, I just got completely caught up in the holidays (Halloween and on) and in fat ass mode. LOL Yes people, the food made me do it! Aside from putting on some weight, I actually did do some pretty cool things. I'll just update you guys on the most interesting aka what I want you to be interested in. ^_^

OCTOBER: I photographed for the PhotoClinic float in the PRIDE parade.  The PhotoClinic offers sophisticated online photo retouching services to give your photo the look you want, whenever you want it. Please feel free to check out the PhotoClinic & the PRIDE images I photographed for them at the parade. It was a great experience accompanied by great people! I had a blast photographing as I strutted my top model walk through the streets. How many people can say they experienced the parade from being in it! It was quite an honor!

NOVEMBER/DECEMBER: I wish I could say I was creating up a storm but I wasn't! Just like everyone else my life was consumed by that black hole that is the holidays! Plus, I was getting myself together after I killed my car, met some super interesting people, and got myself into yet more odd personal situations. Then Domenico Narcissus walked into my life...to photograph him, that is. We met on the PhotoClinic float and just like when we first met, our shoots were just as much fun! He is an exotic private dancer who wanted to make a portfolio of his wardrobe for his clientele. I thought this idea was genius and so our project began. People, not only can he be photographed well but this guy can move! He even has wonderful wardrobe varying from cop to gladiator, paramedic to Scottish costume, etc. Feel free to contact him, Domenico Narcissus,  for adult parties.
