This innocent looking beauty has a fire in her
soul. I myself have always been “cursed”
with an innocent and sweet looking face and this always seemed to bother
me. I felt that people misjudged me at
first glance because as soon as my rather low voice, loud laugh, and honest
nature came shining through thoughts of a sweet and innocent girl were quickly
forgotten. We always say “don’t judge a book by its cover” but realistically
many people do.
I chose to portray this social phenomenon with this
abundantly sweet and innocent LOOKING beauty.
She was chosen not only because of her sweet looking face but because,
like myself, she is not the sweet little innocent girl one might believe. On her left shoulder we can see a colourful
tattoo alluding to her fiery soul. I
hope this piece resonates with my fellow “cuties” who have grown to despise
that word and wish that their cover truly matched their book.
