"I went into the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life... to put to rout all that was not life; and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived." -Henry David Thoreau
This is my attitude toward art and life. I want to create and explore, with no reservations.
MY NAME IS AJ. I LIKE TO MAKE ART.
I am a rock-n-roll girl with a soft side, a freckled riot waiting to happen.
I like leather and lace, daisies and bondage-rope, glitter, fake-blood, stripper-heels, and plain old blue jeans.
I am proud of where I've been, what I've done, and the scars I've gotten along the way.
I like portraying a character, but I prefer being myself.
I am not afraid of showing something personal in each image, whether literally by posing nude, or figuratively with something more interesting than a body.
I love traveling, and want to do more of it. I am quite available with decent notice and expenses covered.
I have rules. I'll let you know when you're getting close to one.
I'm a professional. I will show up on time, prepared, and I will work hard to create something we're both happy with.
I am interested in more genres than I can possibly list here; there's nothing more fun than stepping out of the safe little box and experiencing something new. If you offer something you don't already see in my portfolio, let's talk!
I am picky. I don't often work for trade because, quite frankly, I like having a roof over my head, and that costs money. If I say no to trade, please don't be butt-hurt about it; it's not meant to offend you, it's just business. That being said, I'll do a lot for work that really blows my mind.
I am interested in new tearsheets- magazines, ads, catalogs, fashion-shows, gallery exhibits, etc. If you're interested in my look for any of these, please don't hesitate to write!
I would love to collaborate with some killer designers and stylists. Hair, make-up, wardrobe, whatever- I'm interested. Drop me a line!
I have one tattoo- a small black ankh on my left hip, my left earlobe is pierced twice, my right earlobe is pierced three times, and I have a considerable number of small scars on my hands, arms, and legs. These are a part of me, for better or worse, and I ask that you DO NOT photoshop them out without at least talking to me about it first. I also have a pretty epic scar on my ass at the moment (fading fast, but it's there for the time being). Please feel free to edit that one out. I change my hair frequently. MY AVATAR IS WHAT I CURRENTLY LOOK LIKE.
I am also a photographer: see my work under the name Janey Avalon.
I come with references. Feel free to ask if you'd like to check them.
I don't like spinach, coffee, winter, or people who talk in the theater.
I'M BACK WITH A VENGEANCE.
