Artist's Comments
This is for =psivamp's SurReal Awareness Contest.
My piece is about anorexia (I hope that is quite obvious!). This is a subject that is very close to me (not that I have ever been anorexic), but many of the people I know have suffered eating disorders. And those disorders suck. So many symptoms...most of them ending up in death. So people, please, dont become anorexic or bulimic. This was a cool piece to create. I had a lot of trouble burning the shadows for the rubs and stuff, but thanks to =DoNotAttempt, who showed me some tricks, I finally got it. All of the stock is mine  . I hope you like it..or atleast the message.Oh, and the mirror is shrouded, or unclear. This is a representation of not knowing who one is, or self destruction. Take it in any way you wish, just know that the pose, mirror, and thing inside the mirror all have a concept. Comments the message here is so vividly portrayed.
i truly appreciate the quality and the message of this piece. and thats a rarity. -- :] w00t, yo. Yojne. ~Random Sleeping Kid  This is a great representation of eating disorders like anorexia and bulemia. The warped body, the warped sense of self, and all the while still reaching for affirmation.
Eating disorders are a serious issue that never quite gets properly addressed. Schools will put kids on suicide watch, but a person can drop down to nothingness without anyone blinking an eye. It's an awful epidemic... and I think I will call it an epidemic. Great message, and great job communicating it. What an amazing piece. -- "And lo, all these works were completed in five days, showing that if God had just used Techies, He would have finished sooner."- The Techie Bible I support Jark  amazing. It catches your eye, and your eye does not want to leave. here is great symbolism in this peice. I really like this.
Thank you so much for your thoughts
and I have to agree with you, sadly, it is an epidemic -- buy me for extremely low prices   You did an amazing job on this one. I think it's my favourite photomanipulation of yours so far.
