ELI 

ARTISTS STATEMENT
I've grown up with a bit of the Ugly Duckling Syndrome, so i've really been enjoying getting to know my body over the last few years. And getting to know, bit by bit, that other people like it, too. I enjoy being naked; I love turning my skin up to the sun, and feeling the air on my skin. By Shooting Myself, i've captured some images of myself that will always remind me that I can be beautiful; and even the gross ones with rolls or double chins have merit. I wish I had put a little more artistic ingenuity into my pictures (and that I was much more flexible!), but it's a source of great smugness to me to know that my past boyfriends were wrong and that there's people out there actually willing to pay to see me naked!
