I've been a Polaroid Diva for a few years now. The film is so expensive now since production has stopped that I find myself trying to take "fantastic" photos but feeling sad afterward. I have one packet of film left and 4 exposures in the camera. These three are amongst some of my favorites. The three were taken during my sophomore year at DePaul, the first of the two towers, during a Polaroid Street Art Project I did for a class. My fellow friend, Polaroid and Street Art Aficionado, Morgan Manasa, joined me. The other two were found in the same alley opposite one another. Not so much an alley but a reprieve in the alley, a small overgrown opening. I remember feeling like I had found gold. Both sayings were removed a month after being found. I've been thinking of how to incorporate Polaroids into comics and specifically into the project I'm dreaming of. I'll also attach some comic images of my own. The one in the upper right is of french philosopher, Michele Foucault, who created the penopticon--the model that most penitentary systems are designed after. The spherical looking object is of a torture device Foucault designed. The guy sitting on his computer is my character, Lupo, and the girl is, Fern. This was an image I drew to brainstorm time travel. The colored image is only a portion of a larger one, but is of either a fox or rat/mouse-like character. I'm thinking of doing all of my dream sequences in color and illustrating like so because it's difficult to decipher what exactly is going on. The head shot is me (when I had long hair). I'm mixing fiction with memoir and sometimes I'll pop in to narrate. So now I'm getting excited. I wasn't going to release too many of my images (I have numerous so it's okay) but now I'm just like woah, baby, let's go-Go!-GO! So below are just a slew of images. Enjoy to those who read and hope your days are going as well they can be. Well actually I think I may just do a new post with all images because this seems to be acting funky with the text alignment.
