Artist's Comments

This photo is of my friend Jason, one of the few people I've come somewhat close to since moving to Portland. When he was younger, he got the tattoos you see in the photo. Since then, according to his own words, he has matured, and aimed to immerse in society, only to be shunned by his physical appearance. Few look at Jason and realize that his skin does not symbolize his mind or heart, but only a single and irrelevant fragment of his past, entirely unaffecting the person who he is today beyond the opportunities available to him.

Wow. On the pictures side, i like the light tones of grey, it lightens up the picture and gives it a more cheery feeling. On the discriptions part, i think its a rather moveing story and does add life to the subject. heh,.. he's kinda cute too... :) (Smile)
Good Job!

#Amazing how shallow people can be .. from this pic alone you just get a feeling of good, wholesome humanity in him .. none of the superficial bullshit other people have in them. It's a damn shame :\~

Finally got to see Jason and pup! :D (Big Grin) I already told you everything about how I felt, but I just wanna restate here that you did a wonderful job; what strikes me first is the smile, the eyes--if someone wants to reduce him down to what he now considers a "bad decision", fuck them. It's too bad they run society, 'cause I already know he's smarter than half of 'em from our talks. Not even a bad decision imo--someone's got a tattoo on their face, they have a tattoo on their face.

So imma +fav 'n our friend and imma tell yah 'gin, excellent work lovah, and imma Kiss yah, and imma go back to talkin' to yah. ;) (Wink)
