‘SCARLET_SALT’ by EMILY_NEWMAN
PRIMARY - 26 JAN 2020
"I spent the afternoon out in my hot and sunny garden with a blanket, some tea and paint brushes in my hand as I worked on a current painting. I was feeling so connected to my self and the colour red as I was also on my period during that time. I decided to put bright red lipstick on and tie my hair up with a red silk scarf once the temperature increased. I indulged in the sensual feelings evoked by this colour and loved the smell of my salty skin after a swim in the ocean earlier on in the day. During the shoot I had to be careful of the workers working on my neighbour's house next door! Multiple times, I put my clothes back on frantically as I heard someone climb onto the roof, scuttling with a slight sense of adrenaline rushing through me."
