number 361 What makes me Me would take days of constant talking to explain. I’m a conflicted person at battle with my nostalgia. (I aspire to be as astute as Hunter S. Thompson, with the magnanimity to not fear failure but embrace it.) I’m constantly in turmoil because I forget about me and spend all my time thinking of others. I kill things for a living then have to negate or equalise that negativity with something creative like a carving or nurturing a row of cabbages. I’m a sensitive altruist, who bears a heavy burden. You know you must be mad when you can hold a long silent conversation between two conflicting characters in your head. I have been denied a family on several occasions. Tragedies.

number 358 I’m holed up I’m my studio in Chinatown printing photos for 5 upcoming exhibitions in the next couple of months. I’m also a firm believer in supporting other artists on fb. I believe community is important.

number 357 inability to leave the house, mayfly memory, accuracy over honesty, a half-way house is a safe-house, overly-attached to identity, community grieving, committed liar

number 356 Being compassionate, nonjudgemental, my Mescalero Apache heritage, love of art and writing, these r the main things which have popped into my head this morning, that make me, me.

number 350 What makes me me is looking for beauty in ALL
things…could sound corny…but does explain why I ended up living in Italy running around all the time with a camera in my hand. inspired by Sharon Quarterman
number 347 A free spirit. Always seeking the meaning of life. An old soul who represents her zodiac sign of the two fishes, swimming in opposite directions. Life – a small particle of a bigger thing. What is it, I don’t know but we are all part of a higher self. Inspired, creative, imaginative and forever hopeful.
inspired by Deborah Lawrence
number 344 I’ve realised it’s other people who shape and condition me; who I learn from and share with; who I am inspired and challenged by; who give me strength and purpose; make me sad, elated, amused, irritated.
inspired by Susan Jones
number 342 A catastrophic event shaped me. Since three months old I have been in Survival Mode. The worst has always already happened. Be ready for everything, expect nothing. Observe, reflect, act.

number 341 I make the stuffed toy of fairy.
I draw oil painting and the watercolor
and I make a fairy with color clay.
I like describing a painting in thin pen most.

number 340 The women I have loved and longed for and mostly lost! One notable exception! Gate, Gate, Paragate, Parasamgate, Bodhi Svaha! All the rest, all heartbreak (I love them still!) confusing! All my four-legged friends, those going ‘ARF!’ or ‘MEOW!’ Yet, I am full of the narrative of ‘me’! Despite that hindrance, I am sociable, loyal, loving, lonely & lost.

number 336 I think, a lot. Though often my mind is empty. I like the quiet. I hardly know what it is to feel anxious; people have said my eyes are big blue pools of calm. Water draws me; I love swimming in the sea.

number 335 My connection with music art and football, I believe I have a lot of typical male interests, get on better with men than women mostly, I love travel my photography and my dark room. I over analyse every thing, and love my job as an occupational therapist it fills my need to nurture but makes me irritable with folks irrelevant moaning. and I hate chick flicks but love the Godfather. inspired by Rachel Prescott
number 334 Well, as an ageing, atheist, anti-capitalist, mainly grumpiness. However, I still enjoy photography as much as when I was a teenager, throughout the years it has been the one constant for me. So oddly, looking at the world through a camera lets me express myself, I might add, unfortunately I have no genuinely artistic talents.

number 333 At the moment Sally it’s a fight against pain and wandering thoughts and trying to get back to solvency without the bitterness of dwelling on why I allowed so many people to make a mug of me!
inspired by Debi Tor
number 332 Essentially very interesting teachers and disciplines as a young man, a passion for cheap world travel and the love of a woman that has shared these experiences for 45 years.
