I just finished these two pieces, but as of right now I'm having a dilemma with the size. Almost religiously I print my images out as 11x17s, I have been printing at this size for awhile now. At this moment I am thinking about changing the sizes to more of a square box because I'm not entirely sure I like how much negative space the faces leave on both the top and bottom of the image.


Also as an experiment I stretched the image to fit the whole piece. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about the stretched image yet, but mainly I did it as an exercise to see how the piece would change, and how the feel of the image would change.

Recent.

Lately I have been printing images with Rice Paper. And so far the prints have been a success!! I love how vivid the colors are. Rice Paper you are my new favorite thing!!





The next few images I have not yet printed on rice paper, and I'm not exactly sure if I will or not. But they are just more recent images I have been working with.

Victims

I am currently working on an idea that I am very very excited about. Earlier in the school year I was concentrating more on my OCD then I was on my BPD. But now I am moving into a direction that will help me deal with and have a better understanding of how my BPD affects me, and how I let it affect the people around me.

I have lost a lot of friendships or the possibility of friendships over the past few years, and I am surprised at how many friendships I have been able to maintain. I know that I have hurt a lot of people, some have never spoken to me again and others tend to keep themselves at a safe distance. So for my new series of work I want to portray my victims the people that I have hurt over the years. Victim 1 © Andrea N. Payne

Plan.

I am going to try my best to update this blog as much as possible!!! The only problem is I don't know how to properly edit this blog to make it the way I want it to. So if anyone has any tips or can lend a helping hand it would be more than appreciated :)

She's back.

Before I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) I really thought I had Multiple Personality Disorder. The reason I thought that was because I could easily switch from one personality to another, but I was confusing the term personality with emotion.

As of late I haven't been taken my medication, and I think its finally gone from my system. But because I am no longer taking my medication an old familiar presents has grabbed my hand and is once again walking with me wherever I go. She is back, and she is aggressive.

Oh the joy.
