Newest Deviations

I use my DA gallery not as a standard portfolio i.e. only the very best shots - for that I am building up a DA portfolio (see left) and also my Musecube portfolios will, when I finally manage to tidy them up, be showing only my best work. And of course my 'book' only has the best of the best!
The DA gallery is different. I show here a lot of work that will not necessarily be included in my portfolio, to help me decide what I should regard as the best. So bear with me if the quality of the images is sometimes uneven.

Feature January 2010

This space is for me to feature work by other deviants which I particularly like. I will change this every four weeks. This month it is a collection of landscape shots which really move me for their elegance and beauty.

Kim Cattrall in the Daily Mirror

Sun Feb 7, 2010, 7:34 AM
The beautiful British born actress Kim Cattrall,53 this year, of Sex and the City fame - remember Samantha? - recently posed scantily dressed for the Daily Mirror [link]
I am slightly younger than Kim - and way less beautiful - but I was really bemused to read the following comment by Polly Hudson in the Daily Mirror and felt somehow called into question:

"She’s in fantastic shape but she needs to learn an important lesson – just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

At a certain time in a woman’s life, she has to realise that posing this scantily clad just isn’t dignified. It’s far classier and attractive to leave something to the imagination.

Plus, prancing around in racy little numbers when you’re as “mature” as Kim smacks of desperation"

Oh dear. If Kim should not, where does that leave me? Or is Polly Hudson desperately jealous?

Comments please. Meanwhile I dedicate a deviation to Polly - not that she will ever see it!

I am a classic model. I am with an agency, more than one in fact, but I mostly work independently. I am versatile, my look allows me to be so. I especially like doing creative collaborative work. For the latter I will do TFP/TFCD, with the right photographer. I welcome mutual challenges and ideas that can be expanded upon. I love doing work that is dynamic,multi-layered and multi-referenced and that gives me sufficient scope to perform as a model. I have a strong dance background - I was trained in Graham and other dance techniques, and performed in my twenties, later becoming involved in other dance and performance related activities. I am also a writer and am currently contributing to the blog "What We Saw Today" with art model Unbearable Lightness :iconunbearable-lightness: and photographer Joe Crachiola. I have an unusually flexible, well toned, athletic body, thanks to years of movement and yoga practice - I am addicted to Bikram yoga, of which I am a fairly advanced practitioner - and some martial art training, so I can do very complex poses. I also double up as a life model,holding poses for long is never a problem for me. I live in London but am happy to travel for the right shoot. I love modelling, I came to it relatively late in life and took to it like a duck to water. I believe I can bring to a shoot great poise, elegance, confidence, maturity, sensuality, intelligence, imagination and a highly developed aesthetic sense, acquired through years of being involved one way or another with the creative arts. Contact me with a note if you are interested in working with me.
I have access to a fully equipped, well lit studio in a converted residential home close to where I live so if you want to shoot with me and are not from London, location would not be a problem.

is looking for nude models in the Boston area
:iconstefedesign:
I came across you via Jan Murphy and her photos of you. I innocently ask a question about her photograph 'found again'and subsequently was directed to you. I too have photographed(and prefer to) mature models who can see,if you like,on my site. Look at 'tight jeans, moonshine, will you,voyeur can see, hold me.......she Serena and is 54.
Your site is going to take me a long time to look at and the associated links are so interesting, although I have seen some of these sites/blogs before.
You potfolio is beautiful interesting, interlectual and far more than the annoying bleached straightened hair brigade as I put it.Hope to add comments in the future Steve (59)

Just before Christmas, Mark Varley said I should come here to DA to look at your work, among a few others, for inspiration and guidance. I was so impressed and a little overawed!...I never dreamt I'd be getting a watch back

Thank you :)
