The Bathing Suit Project: A huge favor...

This message is for all my fellow female readers (but male readers can help by passing this along to female friends):

It's been a year and two days since I last visited The Bathing Suit Project and it's really something I would like to continue on with. But I need your help! I have nearly exhausted the images of everyday people in bathing suits...This is where I need you. I know, it is a HUGE request of something that can be very personal -- but I promise I will include my own recent pictures -- in which I am not feeling my best at all...!

Pictures can be old or new, as long as they are full length of you in a bathing suit or even just your underwear. Send more than one if you have it! Please be sure to include your height as well.

Images will be used for silhouetting purposes ONLY and your name will never be matched to the project.

Here is a link to the silhouettes I have so far, just so you can see just how unrecognizable you will be!

Thank you so much for your continuing support. If you choose not to send a picture, I will not hold this against you in any way. I am just trying to use my resources as much as possible!

Thank you thank you thank you!

Best,
Bethany

Bathing Beauties

Really quick here...just wanted to do a little post and another plea. I changed the style of my bathing beauties and it is going to be more like Thirty-Eight Self-Portraits (Because I Wish I Were Smaller).

If you sent me a full length bathing suit or underwear photo, you might be able to recognize yourself so far.

I need more though, ladies! Full length, please! Send 'em along!

It's been a while...

So it has been a while, and I just wanted to let you all know I am still alive and still creating...its just been a lot of projects that I am working out and not ready to share. I am deeply involved in my new studio space now, so I think my projects posted might be few and far between, but when I do post, hopefully it will be larger projects.

These women here (for those of you that know me, can you find me?!) are part of a project on female body image I am working on. Not exactly sure where it is going, but I have some ideas...for now I have been working on silhouettes when I have a free moment. (Ladies, if you want to particpate, I would LOVE you to...just send me a full length picture of you in a bathing suit (or underwear is fine) as well as your height.)

*And yes, I will make this image more diverse (or less Caucasian) eventually. Again, this is a work in progress and I am just color coding for now, need to work out colors later.*

Hopefully I will motivate as well in the next couple days to scan and post my page a day...
