This photo was taken at the Art Institute of San Francisco and I manipulated it to put a personal twist on it.
I'm a photographer that draws her inspiration from a few sources- the main ones being my God Mother and Cindy Sherman.
My God Mother, Pam-Anela (pictured) has always supported me in my artistic endeavors and it was her that- long ago- sent me this amazing book on the life and work of Cindy Sherman.
The photos she's looking at are mine, and other photographers and artists that inspire me (I placed them there through photo manipulation). It's hard to pick one. My friends, my husband, dancing, living- it's pretty much all there.
The photo itself reminds me of a Sherman piece- even if it's not a self portrait. I suppose Pam-Anela is my Cindy Sherman.
