Scanned self images

Taking images of yourself is a hard thing to do, especially when working on something like the topic of body image. These images iv uploaded before, but these have a twist to them. I painted over printed images, to try and create something new. I painted over the body figure, as if to hid them from people seeing them, like we do with make up, Photoshop, and Internet on a daily basis. I then scanned these images back onto my laptop and cropped them down. I thought there was something personal going on in the images, for me there is, but when i showed them to others, i got responses that they felt like they were spying on someone, like they shouldn't be looking at them. 






 These two images, are more abstract then the rest. This was purposely done because I was trying to achieve an image that looked like there was a figure within the page.
