Angela The Muse

NOTE:Since I'm not on here as much,feel free to email me at angelathemuse@yahoo.com Thanks.

Model,Muse,Actress. Former ugly duckling turned industry quirky girl.My artist statement is to make so called flaws be percieved as beautiful/sexy because I honestly thing society has a warped perception of beauty. I also want to make people feel and be inspired.The world is an ugly place and beauty is my escape. Welcome to my universe.

I enjoy the idea of being living art. I'm looking to network with more artists.

I don't do unpaid work unless I'm getting something out of what we're doing besides just a photo . Photos are great but I have plenty of those and have plenty of people to go to for more of those. :)If it's actual exposure or we are building towards a continuous collaborative work relationship where you will consider me for paid projects or submit our images,then that's an exception of course. If we've worked together before or talked about working together before,that's an exception as well.  I am working towards something and just don't want my time wasted is all. I consider this a job and want my time respected and to be treated as the professional I am is all.
TRAVEL: L.A-December 2nd-5th. Toronto sometime soon after that. Message me if you want to work together. I'm mainly looking for shoots for submissions to magazines,paid shoots,and a few portfolio tests TFCD. And,a short film would be really cool,too. .

Too many people copy each other on this site. It's amazing how many fakes there are.  This is a shady industry. I'm careful with who I work with. I'm sick of working trade and not getting images. I remember the people who are shady and the people who screw me over. I will also remember those who are good to me.
GOALS AS OF RIGHT NOW:
1.)Tearsheets
2.)A lot more traveling
3.)A revamped pure top 10 type fashion/beauty portfolio
4.)More acting

NOTE:I highly prefer to NOT model fur. Thanks for understanding.

NOTE 2:I'm glad I inspire,but it'd be great if you could refrain from attempting to copy me. Please use your own ideas with your own brains. Thanks!
