Self Portrait 365|26

by KatieP, in category Self Portrait 365

I can’t decide if I want to be pretty and ethereal, or dark and stripped back. I like seeing the freckles on my skin and the bags under my eyes ~ I look as though I’m wearing my life on my skin.

And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places.

There is a gap, a huge chasm, between the way we see ourselves and the way others see us. When we look in the mirror, we concentrate on how much we fall short of the idealised notion of beauty we see in magazines and on television.

tie dye

I was born too late to be a real hippie. In the 60s and 70s I was only a child, but I remember wearing long paisley dresses, layers of bracelets and headbands.

straight

I look way too put together in this photo, as though I were heading off for a job interview in a corporate office. Someone needs to mess up my straight hair. I’m much more dishevelled than this image portrays.

I have dreamt in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas.

Self Portrait 365|8

by KatieP, in category Self Portrait 365

Today it feels self indulgent and vain to flood my blog with pictures of myself. Why would anyone want to look at them?

beach day

I’ve always been a fish ~ I love the water and the feel of sand between my toes. If I could be anything, I’d be a mermaid.

Self Portrait 365|5

just got up

I think I’ve been trying too hard. So this morning I got up and took a photo without doing anything to myself at all.

leather and stripes

I hated every single photo I took today. I don’t know if it was my hair, or the way I was feeling, but I just look bloated and old in every frame.

The internet has been buzzing about Renee Zellweger’s plastic surgery. This flurry of commentary has made me think about my own opinions.

I see so much beauty in the world, sometimes so much I worry that I’ll explode from the joy it brings. But when it comes to myself … not so much.

The Self Portrait • a demonstration of self-acceptance

the self portrait • a demonstration of self acceptance

What if taking a self-portrait helped me accept who I am and what I look like?
The idea seemed feasible. Totally feasible but completely scary.

Author – Katie Paul

I have survived adoption, bulimia and the suicide of my husband, more or less unscathed. I attribute my resilience to my guardian angels Bob, Fred and Hugo.

I used to be a stage manager but gave it all up to create beautiful images and to write about loss, love, lust and longing. I get a bit raunchy at times because that’s the way life should be – full of big juicy moments. I'm sure Bob, Fred and Hugo agree.
