Racing Stripes Self Portrait #44

Racing Stripes August 3 2012

This photo was created from an image of a quick (2 or 3 minute) art modeling pose. 

Gabriel Mark Lipper-for his painting class-asked if I had anything with black & white stripes.

Of course I obliged.

I really need an entire body suit though, no?

*AN UPDATE RE: STRIPED BODY SUIT- instructors have indicated over the years how lovely it would be to have one of these for class use. No one has yet purchased, or ever offered to pay for one. A model suggested buying a custom made one on Etsy-which I’m certain would look stunning, but my total budget  is $5-10-so that’s not realistic .

I am a crafty fucking bitch however, and in possession of 2 pairs of striped tights, sewing machine, and epic determination…..

Another Striped Suit Update: Bodysuit is a success! Photos soon, its circus-dorable.
