Artist, exudes self expression that IS Miss Karen, 41, North Idaho. Artist extrordiare, blow torch yeilding wench who rules her own Universe with as much imagination as possible. I make glass art & jewelry pieces but am not limited to that medium whatsoever. I dive into art in every way possible, including photography. I love to show expression, I love to see expression. I think photography lets all that self expression show us that we are always way more than we ever thought we were before. ***Self Portrait-ism- is the highest form of self inspection--expansion-exploration-examination-THROUGH execution-TOOL we have in todays digital age..or something like that! Self portraits are not about vanitiy- they are about self exploration & seeing yourself in new ways. Vanity has nothing to do with it and never enters my mind. Self portaitism is self exploration-art over rides ego and pride..and I find myself on a brand new ride every time I shoot. Oddly enough I do not really expect anything less than a cool trip every time I download my memory card..every day is as interesting as we let it be- and when we are fortunate enough to capture our "own special worlds" in photographs..it is always magic to me ; )

Self expression is the key to sanity and health! *I express myself to the fullest in every way possible* Cheezy Grin ; )
Namaste~

I do not add as FRIENDS people who have no photos available to me, people without any photo. If you want to be my "friend", I suggest spending some time actually looking at and commenting upon my photos first.
I surf here to fill my eyes with wonderous color, feelings expressed by others, good photography in which I will learn from, sparking my imagination everyday I come to flickr ; )

I enjoy emailing, good conversation, whit, and mild flirting in my socializing here ; ) But if you do not have your OWN photo, the chances of me adding you as a friend are very slim. If you have lots of photos from online-forget it. I want real people who are not afriad to show themselves. There is no shame is being a multifaceted person, why deny parts of yourself or call them dirty? WE Are EVERYTHING, there is nothing dirty about ADMITTING what I am, what I like, who I am from face to my flickr'd ass. SHAME is for people who do not accept themselves. I have very little shame left ; ) I enjoy myself greatly. I am here to entertain myself. I hope to find others who are feeling the same way. Show who you are, free yourself. Lose your "social skin" and your fear of being seen..it only binds you~

It's a shame I have to say this but all copyrights belong to me. You may not copy, reproduce, link to or otherwise take advantage of my photos without my consent. You may enjoy them, comment on them, mark them as a favorite etc. But that's all I give you permission to do.

    "You like portraits?
    Well believe me, you aint seen nothing until you've seen Karens work.
    With a seemingly instinctive understanding of shadows, and how their pools of darkness strike a contrast by lifting and enhancing the illuminated areas to a whole new level, Karen openly flaunts her unrivalled mastery over the medium of light."

    "It seems to me that the immortal words of Bob Dylan,
    "she's got everything she needs, she an artist, she don't look back", describe Karen to a "T".
    Her work is audacious, bold, as well as provocative.
    ...and there is more - Karen never lets us forget her human side, her vulnerabilities. She is ever careful in her work, to keep her audience guessing, not only what she's feeling now, but what goes on in the depths of her enlightened soul.
    I quite honestly can not wait to see what she will do next, her work is that engaging for me! Perhaps one day we will all be able to reach that special place that is now occupied by those divine few, such as Karen! We can only hope!"

    "Seduction is your forte and self expression is your will. You capture emotions, feelings, and ideas in a way that not too many people can. I love your confidence and self esteem. I love that you love your body so much that you put it out there for others to see.... I yield to thee my lady. Your Spanish Knight is at your mercy...."

    "Colours so bright and so vivid
    So wonderfully vivid and bright
    My eyes are feasting and craving
    Craving her light
    So vivid and beautifully bright
    Intensely emotion awakens
    Awakens deep in my heart
    Emotions that stir the very soul that resides
    Resides awakened
    Aroused deep in my heart
    A lust to be with her within me
    A lust for a taste of her touch
    All that she is and has lived is her beauty
    Her beauty reborn
    Feeds my lust
    I want her to see me to feel me
    To feed from the joy she has made
    I want for her heart to be singing
    Out loud
    Singing all that she is
    With her colours so bright and so vivid
    She is shining so wonderfully bright
    My eyes that were craving are feasting
    Feasting
    On wonderful sights

    For a beautiful beautiful woman
    I am looking and learning

    Your grasshopper

    "Innocence, seduction, art, humor, emotion, vulnerability, candor, erotica, creativity, life, love and the pursuit of the unusual ~ these things pretty much sum up what you can discover in this photostream.

    You'll find beauty minus an ounce of fear. You'll experience more energy in a single image than most of us can capture in an entire stream. You'll find reality and fantasy. The best part is, if you're lucky, you may just find Karen as well.

    She's intriguing, funny and smart alecky. I'm proud to call her a friend.

    *Karen, thank you for sharing your ups and downs.

    I love you.
    ~Plush"
