It took over 11 hours of work but yay!

Here are the recent photos I've done for Bonnie as the Virgin Mary. I'm really pleased with them ^_^
we used all our own props to make the entire image (except the flowers in the border...that I made up of loads of flower pics I found online) Bonnie skinned the baby Jesus bunny & I decorated the heart with the flowers, blade & the candles. We were trying to go for something a bit religious kitsch but with our own twist on it & also we were heavily inspired by the work of Pierre et Gilles & of course, Catholic art of the sorrowful mother.
Massive thanks for Sam for doing being prop holder/ spotlight holder extraordinaire & for knowing how to make the fabric into the head dress :P You rock!

(I'll make a proper update about stuff in general later....)

Fuck me I'm bored.... & hung over O so slightly lol.

Last night I spent at home by myself... what resulted was me being Very, very VERY bored & drunk on cider & J.D. I then decided it would be a good idea to draw on myself with my eyeliner which resulted in this:




O yes! I am one sexy mutha fucking bloke! :P Albeit ever so slightly Mediterranean & rapey looking....

Dom dressed as a guy

In other news I am feeling much more happy ^_^ been going out & having fun with my mates & have been enjoying my life. I've been going for walks about & enjoying all the beauty of the countryside in autumn, The forest was amazing the other day! Serene with only the movement & sound of leaves falling down from the sky & a symphony of colour... gold, browns, orange & red. Autumn always makes me want to paint & take sepia photos :)

I'm also beyond happy over what my lovely Nanny has managed to sort out for me ^_^ She has talked a local taxidermist into teaching me! I was so overjoyed when she told me this that I cried. It's something that I've been wishing to learn & do for so long & now it’s finally going to happen. The guy who's going to teach me knows it all like the back of his hand as he's been doing it for like 30 odd years, I couldn't hope for a better teacher. I still can't believe that he agreed to do it 0_0 as normally taxidermists are, as a rule, very clicky about their craft & not really willing to share it with other people. So I feel very fortunate about it & extremely grateful... it’s going to be so cool! 
The other day I also got a message from Adam Powell asking me to star in a music vid he'll be making for the band 'Architects' I'm super stoked about this as they are such a brilliant band & I love working with Adam, It's always so fun :D So should be filming it in different loacations over different weekends, which is also a bonus 'cos I get to drive to & visit new places, which is something I really like doing. So this is something for me to really look forward to... even if it is making me miss being in a band -_- Grrrr. I tried last year to be in a band again but it just wouldn't work out due to me having to work in the evenings. I hate my job for making me miss out on so much I love, I'm extremely sick of it! Ah well not long to go until I'll be quitting. New year, new start. I just want a 9-5 or something, working evenings is shit! So once that all happens I'm going to make a point of doing all the things that working evenings has prevented me from doing... So I will find another band to be in as It's something I have a real passion for & My vocals have gotten so much better since I first started ^_^ I still practice nearly everyday while driving to work & when I'm on my own at home hee he, I will attend much more gigs, do more art, Take up evening classes at college... & well, generally live my life more. It's going to be so liberating the day I hand my notice in!

Not got much planned this week... I;m going up London tomorrow for a family get together to celebrate my cousin's little boy's 1st birthday ^_^ he's so cute! & On Tuesday I'm going out to London for a 50's themed dinner & piss up with Bizarre magazine which should be really fun... was a mission to get work to let me have it off but I've luckily got my own way :P So going to go & meet up with some mates as well. I can't wait to see Laura again, it sucks that she lives so far away. O & sugar if yu're reading this I have your birthday prezzie that I'll bring with me. It's uber random hee hee.

Well anyhoo, not much else to say, just thought I'd update... I'm going to go sort out some more of my myspazz page now & get some food in me. I'm starving!

xxxx

Just wanted to make an update to let yu all know that I haven’t died. I’ve just been really useless (a.k.a busy) & haven’t gotten my ass online recently. I’ve only managed to snatch a few minutes here & there, in between working & rushing about sorting things like a mad women!.... It’s been a VERY hectic couple of months for me, so I’m really overjoyed that it’s now looking more & more like I’m going to have more ‘Me time’ & spare time to relax to do what I want & need to do ^_^
Just want to apologise *gets down on knees & begs!* to [info]ulorin_vex for not making the T.G birthday ball… sadly life all went a tad tits up for me around that date & I couldn’t make it. I didn’t have any dollah & was having a few relationship issues etc at the time (all resolved now which is good…) So I’m really, really, REALLY sorry… & gutted that I didn’t go! But if yu’re going to The summer ball on the 7th july I’ll 100% defiantly be there as I’m going there for birthday celebrations (my birthday’s on the 12th) Should be a really good night :)
 
I’ve been feeling really GRRRRR recently because I’ve been so wrapped up in other things that I’ve neglected having much time to myself to create etc. I’m getting to the point where if I don’t get to have the spare time I’m going to totally turn psychotic lol. So I’m having pretty much all this weekend to myself to get on with my Artwork & projects which I’m really glad about because I’ve got lots of art I need to complete & I also need to start work on the designs for my pay site that I’m doing with a friend in North Walsham. July is looking set to be a busy one as far as taking photos go, because I need to shoot a shit load of content for it before we get it up & running!… I just hope the weather gets better so I can do some nice outdoor stuff for it. Global warming my ass! *shakes fist at the grey sky* the weather is really bugging me at the mo & I totally forgot about it being my birthday until like 2 days ago! I’m normally used to the weather around my birthday being stupidly hot & sunny yu see, so It doesn’t even feel like it’s the right time of year. All the rain we’ve been having is so damn depressing. I want sun! -_-
 
I’ve been doing some really exciting things over the last two months & life in general is fine & dandy for me right now. I feel like I’m in a really good place & that I’m slowly but surely achieving all my dreams & desires. I couldn’t wish for it to be any better which is such an ace feeling…. I’ve just got this amazing inner glow of happiness & contentment at the moment & I’m so at peace with myself/comfortable in my skin it almost scares me….But I do like the fact that I can place my hand on my heart & declare that I am truly happy. & what tops it all off is that it’s the kind of inner happiness that nothing or nobody else can take from me. It comes from inside me & only I can take it away… Kind of hard to describe but its very lovely ^_^ *smiles*
I’ve been up & down to London a few times for some photo shoots recently which have been cool… Worked with the ever lovely & talented Marc Blackie again on the 9th & got some really cool stuff done. We did a spanking pic where I was being spanked by a scarecrow which was fun (One of the shots from that set is going to be used in a photo book being bought out by Goliath publishing I do believe…) we also did a few other things involving menstrual blood & then some colour shots based around a bukkake theme! These were great fun I got to be covered by this bath cream that did look exactly like cum, called ‘heavenly milk’… I kid yu not it was called that! This was very amusing until it slowly worked it’s way into my closed eyes & stung like hell… but we managed to get quite a few wicked shots before I had to be led to the bathroom by Marc to wash the pseudo man-juice from my burning eyes…Ahhh all in the name of art eh?
Here’s one of the shots I pinched from Marc’s site, I haven’t been sent any of the others yet:

I like this shot a lot. It was my idea based around a piece of art work I did a while back called ‘The monthly Bleed’ Which was of a girl with her inner parts showing (like in a sex education book) then with blood running down her legs. I like how Marc’s shot & cropped this, I think it works really well.

I also went to London to do a cover shoot for Bizarre magazine with Aria Giovanni a few weeks back…This was the best photo shoot I’ve ever been on! The Bizarre guys are all such a laugh & Aria was the most beautiful & sweetest women I’ve ever met… A true Goddess incarnate! We both wore latex underwear & got sprayed with water to look all sweaty ha ha, was a VERY hot & sexy shoot… but not going to say much more; yu’ll all have to wait until the magazine comes out. I think it’s going to be the August issue. I can’t wait to see the results from the shoot printed in the mag, It’s going to be really cool, but odd to see my mug on the shelves on the local newsagents.
I’m going to have to paint Aria a portrait because she defiantly inspired me with her beauty & charisma. Was great to hang around with everyone after the shoot & getting pissed & stuffing our faces full of yummy Turkish/Moroccan food. Mmmmm hummus!
A few of the Bizarre team are coming down to the fine city of Norwich next week to do an article on the city for their little tour of Britan thang that they’re doing. I’m going to give them a guided tour of all the odd things around the place & show them the decent places to go when it comes to shops, clubs etc. I’ve managed to sort out quite a few things with the help of Kev for them to do whilst down here. We’re going to take them to Indigo Tattoo studio to let them see Kev get his genital beads inserted (Fuck that’s going to be funny!) & then we managed to blag our way into being let into spearmint rhino for free in the night time. This kicks ass because we’ll get money Put behind the bar by the manager & we talked them into letting us have permission to take photos in the establishment, which is something they normally NEVER do. So yeah, should all be a really fun filled day of mayhem & mischief…. Can’t wait!
 
Well going to be off for now as need to crack on with some house work & do some art… but I’ll write a more thoughtful update later… I’ve written this all at super speed ha ha. Oooo before I go looky at the prettiness I bought!!!!
It cost so much money but it’s soooo worth it! I’ve wanted this outfit forever, so finally bought it as a birthday gift to myself. I got it in black with red trim & I got the whole outfit as well! so it’s the neck corset, the corset, the straps, the kick ass pussy pants & also got some dildo pants with it. I love H-W design latex; they really do make the most amazing outfits. Can’t wait to put this on when it gets here ^_^
 
It looks like this:
 
Bye for now… *kisses*

Today I have been rather bored & A bit meh due to certain reasons I don't really wish to go in to... well not until I know the full extent of it. Fear not though, I'm sure I'll let yu all in on it sooner rather than later. I'm trying not to let it ruin my good mood, Keeping my chin up at the mo :)

I randomly decided to play with the macro on my digi cam this afternoon as I was curious about what my eyes looked like close up lol. They look rather neat ^_^ they’ve got all these awesome patterns & these bands of amber/greens running through them... see:

 

 

I have pretty windows *smiles*



Other than that I've been packing my stuff for a shoot I'm doing with [info]threnodynvelvet tomorrow... This should be really fun, I've been looking forward to working with her for weeks! I think I look a bit rough at present (probably due to the insane amount of stress & worry I've got going on at the moment) So I'm hoping I look ok for the pics... I'm sure they'll look fab though :P We're going to shoot some retro stuff, medical stuff & also some high fashion style shots. It will rock!

Hmmm I really do need to get round to sorting out my bloody myspace page -__- I'm actually starting to feel guilty for having not replied to so much mail or accept the 100's of friend requests I've got. grrr I think there's a problem when yu start to feel guilt over a website! ha ha.
It's all fun & games really... I've got another twat with a fake pro on there pretending to be me
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=83124928 (Think it's the same person who had a fake one of me on there last year!) Some people really do have WAY too much time on their hands. Pathetic.
I also had some random girl message me, after reading about my contraceptive implant giving me excess body/facial hair on my L.J (happy to say that's improving now the bloody thing's removed) . She said something along the lines of:

'Oh my god! I can't believe you can just go ahead and admit to people that you have excess body and facial hair! You're mad! I would be so ashamed if I had that problem 0_0 Don't you ever worry that people who have read about this from your journals will take the piss and tell everyone?'

...Bless them. I had to laugh. The bottom line is: I DO NOT CARE WHAT OTHER PEOPLE CHOOSE TO THINK ABOUT ME

If people want to take the piss then whatever... it doesn't concern me. I'm not ashamed of any of my flaws. Hell, I'm far from perfect & I'm not going to swan around pretending that I am some goddess without any faults. I am comfortable in my skin. Yes Obviously I would rather not have the excess hair, But at the same time I'm not ashamed of it & I'm not going to pretend that I haven't got the issue. I'm more than happy to admit all of my bodily imperfections because the shallow bullshit really doesn't concern me. Other peoples ideals & vanity issues are utterly inconsequential to me.... I am above that & For all the people that will take the piss & whisper behind me back; Please go ahead, Be my guest... I'm happy to be your source of bitchyness if it will make yu feel O so better about yourselves & feed your egos.

& While we're at it, have a little more ammunition... go on take your full.. We can’t have starving egos can we?


The bee sting breasts that hang from my chest,
The rib bones that jut out like keys on an xylophone,
The protruding hips & collar bones.
The eyebrows that grow to meet in the middle if I don't pluck them out religiously,
The hairs that I shave off my big toes, on each side x 3
The eczema in the crooks of my arms, neck & upper back,
The dark under my eyes from the sleep that I lack,
The white lines on the top of my thigh that criss cross,
The mottled skin tones that look like marble table tops, 
The veins in the backs of my knees like blue serpents sleeping & coiled up,
The indents of a few dimples on my big butt, (A.K.A cellulite)
The excess body hair on my legs, arms, stomach, face... well just about everywhere

& The fact that none of this vanity matters & That I REALLY don’t care.

Now do yu see why I am beautiful?...

I want anyone who’s reading this to reply with this little exercise. Come on don’t be afraid to admit your faults to yourself & anyone else. They are just as much yu as the good parts. Yu will also find that once yu are happy to admit them instead of trying to disguise them from others (& sometimes yourself) They really won’t bother yu half as much. Go on try it, I promise it will make yu feel better.

xDDx
