ARTISTS STATEMENT
Being naked for me is complicated. I either feel totally empowered, or very vulnerable, never really in the middle. Like a lot of women, I have battled with body confidence issues and being on the more curvy side it has taken a lot of work to gain the confidence to accept who I am. On top of this I have a history of self harm and still have the scars all over my body. Now I that I have accepted them (I call them my battle scars) I have come to realise that beauty does not only exist in-between the pages of a magazine, it's mostly lies and Photoshop. Beauty is the person you are and not being afraid to show it. One day I hope to be brave enough to let everyone see who I am.

ARTIST PROFILE
birthplace: Scotland.
occupation: Bartender/Retail.
age: 27.
height: 5'7"-ish I think.
weight: Not a clue, curvy though.
relationship status: Single and happy with it.
starsign: Leo.
biggest passion in my life: Travelling, I have wanderlust and got it bad. The thought of staying in one place forever is my worst nightmare!
I like to listen to: the sound of the rain against a window, it is very relaxing and often puts me to sleep.
I like to watch: people when they think no one is watching, in a more literal sense, Game of Thrones, Dr Who...
I like to smell: fresh coffee, new books, fresh cut grass and oddly, the smell a man has after a work out.
I like to taste: salted caramel, craft beer and spicy food. Not all together though!
I like to feel: carefree, I often get bouts of anxiety that can be crippling, so when it passes it feels amazing.
favourite part of my body: I love my hair and eyes. I used to hate my hair, but then I accepted it and now love the fact that red hair and blue eyes are the rarest genetic combination, and everyone loves a redhead!
favourite part of someone else's body: Hip bones on a man, I just get drawn to them! A nice smile never fails to catch my eye.
Why i shot myself: Curiosity to see if I am actually brave enough to put myself out there.
who I'd most like to see shoot themselves: Rebel Wilson, I think she is brilliant and would love to see what she comes up with.
my website/fav website: Buzzfeed and Cracked. I can waste so many hours on both those sites, I lover the randomness of it all. Plus, it's educational, kind of...
Most outrageous thing I have done: This is up there, but previous to this I guess would be the time I accidently walked off a jetty and fell into water where bull-sharks are regularly spotted.
Bands I like: I've got a wide range of music that I love, ranging from opera to 80's. I love David Bowie, he's brilliant. Also Muse and Cloud Control are up there. Take That too...
Books I like: Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, His Dark Materials. I can read them over again and again. Also I do love a good psychological and crime thriller.
Films I like: Pan's Labyrinth, Harry Potter, Die Hard, again, very varied taste in movies.
