Hello Lexie:
I'm going to have to find the first one, but I like this version very much. It has a lot of obscure personal associations for me.
My first experience with photography in the early 50s was making blueprint images from twigs, leaves and toys that were exposed in sunlight and developed over an ammonia bath. I was five. More recently, there were a couple of years in the early 90s when most of my large images were created by dividing a single very high resolution scan into a dozen equal 10x10 squares, treating each as a separate PS file, and making a color laser print of each file before finally reassembling the entire image on a sheet of masonite and finishing it with gesso and usually some acryclic paint.
Anyway, this image suggest a concept which I'm sure you've probably considered and rejected. But to me it seems to be the perfect vehicle for an autobiographical exploration on the eight different faces of Lexie Summers i.e. (just guessing here) mother, photographer, lover, cheerleader, gardner, chauffeur, care giver, disco queen, etc... you get the idea.
Love you work. I'll be back. Thanks for the visit to my portfolio. --Jim

I like this one better than the other one. It has an aloof quality that has no time associated, it could have been taken yesterday or 30 years ago or in the far future. Timelessness, the CLASSIC qualities, is difficult to capture. In this you have done it very well. I especially like the tiled effect, with the slightly disporportional spacing, and the somber gaze. Well done!

I think I like this one more than the first. The asymmetry gives it a better feeling of motion.
Cyanotype is a good choice as well. There is something about the blue image that contributes to that sense of instability here. Just out of curiosity, I looked at the image in Photoshop and desaturated it, and the effect is completely different--more like a scene from a horror movie with that low, upward pointed light.

Really interesting : it makes me think of David Hockney's photgraphic work. Multiple faces we can see in cubist painting too.

This one appears to have 'things' in apparent proportion... and have to suggest that the model is of Dutch extraction... after seeing a number of like faces over the past couple of days...... Well done there is i.e.MSP here with good execution...
