No Evil

Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil

I love this series. There are so many ways to interpret each pose. The images I composited all seemed a good match with each other, but I will also include some outtakes below. A huge thank you goes out to Kat for bringing her own spin on this set.

Day of the Dead - Blood Lust

This is the next installment in my mask-making series. I have been creating masks as a hobby to build on my creative impulses. This is a continuation of my first tear-away Day of the Dead mask with this one being much more graphic with drips and blood stains across the entire face of the mask. All the blood details between the masks are hand-sculpted and are 3-D with hand-painted detail in varying shades of red to simulate blood and muscle beneath the surface. The smaller mask attaches with magnets embedded within the sculpture so no strings or fasteners are visible. The eye sockets are filled with black and red lace in order to separate the model's eyes from the mask. Black silk roses are splattered with red paint to mimic blood splatter and matches the other details on the masks. The juxtaposition of the horror of the mask and the beauty of the model is my new favorite technique.

The Fan as Art ft. Kat

My all-time favorite prop is definitely the folding, fabric fan. Fans offer a barrier to the model as a way to hide themselves from the viewer, in whole or in part. It lets her show only what she wants you to see, whether she is hiding her face or her body, you only get to see what she allows.

Card Guard - The Ace of Spades

As a continuation of my mask-making  hobby, here is the next edition. These are based on the idea of the card guard from the Alice madness video game. The suit of the card is embedded in the face of the skull making the eyes disappear within the design. The skull bikini is another of my creative builds for this session. I used two Halloween skull decorations with some creative manipulation and a special paint job to match them to the skull mask. I love the juxtaposition of the horror mask on a beautiful model. Thanks to Kat for helping me showcase this design.
