Response to Tomboys

from Peter Hughes (ravenart@pacbell.net)
Thanks for the comments.

I think the comment about cutting Rebecca off is right on. So, too, the comment about her femininity/masculinity. Good observations.

See a different shot of Rebecca here: http://www.ravenvision.com/images/rebeccatomboy2.jpg

I hope the curvature doesn't detract. In fact, I want to use the distortion to even better effect. I especially like the distorted house in Mary's shot; it looks like a spaceship or something. Very ominous.

I don't really have an artist's statement. Perhaps I should say that I have been taking a lot of photos with short telephotos, isolating women's faces, and I'm in the mood for some environmental work. Also, the photos I usually take are intended to be somewhat glamorous.

I'm still formulating a look for this series and any further comments would be welcome.
