MFA Complete

Sat Jun 7, 2008, 8:19 PM
Well, I went to San Francisco in early May to defend my Masters thesis...and I passed. Yay for me!

I'm finished with my degree, but this project is long from over. I still have a lot of work to do and plan to continue working with as I pursue my PhD next fall. Wish me luck.

-------------------

My Project

For the last 2 1/2 years I've been working on my MFA in Photography (and for my thesis project I've focused on the issue of body image. I thought it would be really helpful for me to get some feedback from people other than those in my classes, so I want to hear what real people have to say. I am looking for comments, suggestions, ideas for new images, anything that you are willing to throw my way. All I ask is that you be kind. It took a LOT of courage for me to decide to use myself in these images and it took even more courage to share these with my classmates and even more courage than that to post them here, essentially to the world. I welcome your criticism, provided it is constructive and not hurtful.

Thanks very much.

You and your work are beautiful! I love the way you used two of you in the pictures, very nice, but tell me, have you ever tried instead of the black backdrop tried just a normal backscape, say sit on a couch and create the clone effect, to me that adds realism to the already beautiful picture.
