Day Nine - Faceless Self Portrait

I had a different idea today from what I ended up with. I originally had thought of not using my body at all in the self portrait – I would somehow show a heart bursting with love – love of God and love of all my friends that have loved and supported me – especially during all the difficult times with my mom. Was struggling a bit with the execution of the idea when I came up with another one.

The fun socks, of course. Because not only do they have hearts – but they also have peace symbols to represent the peace that I feel now that my mom is now celebrating up in heaven. And since they are mismatched – I think it shows off my fun, goofy nature. I was originally going to take a picture of just the socks, but decided to include my Van’s also since they have a bit of sparkle in them (ohhh – bright shiny lights) and they have the Alzheimer’s laces to represent one of my favorite causes. I like it!

The hint of your work pants showing above the socks round out the complete picture of you, very eclectic, very diverse and very fantastic :)
