Day 1176 of 365 4 lyf. So, no one was able to guess my Halloween costume. But now, hopefully you all get it. I’m pretty pleased with this one, and I was a huge hit at the party. It wasn’t even that hard to do. It’s actually kinda nice, given how much work some of…

It’s been a while since I posted a tarot card, and I was three behind, so I figured that I’d put one together tonight.

This is Kevin. He’s actually a makeup artist, not a model, and in fact is the MUA I hired all the way back when I did the photoshoot for Cosmic Hellcats so if you follow my stream you know how long ago that was.

I always love when i get the chance to work with someone who’s not a model. Most people seem to think that they don’t photograph well. But I think that given the right circumstance and concept, anyone can be great.

The shoot was easy and straightforward and I think turned out exactly right.

Still adding to the male tarot cards. I did so many female ones in a row that now I’m having to do a bunch of males to catch up. Wayne was one of the earliest people I cast for the project, but like so many others, it took me a while to get to him. No matter, I’m quite happy with the results.

Day 13 of 365 days. Yet another heavy photoshop day. I think I may be done with that for tomorrow, but who knows. Anyway, again an idea I had on the way home from work. Where all the most creative thinking is done. I’m posting it after midnight but that because I had to put…
