I used a black light and a highlighter to make my scar stand out and give the pictures a very different type of lighting. I think the use of highlighter changes the way the pictures are interpreted and give a completely different dimension to them. The first picture shows the scar but very lightly with the orange. If I choose to do a collage this pictures will tell a story about my anger towards having a scar on my face.
This second picture my realization that the scar is definitely there, and there is nothing I can do about it.
This is where I come to accept my scar and show it off to everyone .
If I emulate Duane Michals I will focus on the story and make it a series.
If I chose to emulate Barbara Kruger I will use the last picture with text such as "X marks the spot"
