Look I'm standing naked before you
Don't you want more than my sex
I can scream as loud as your last one
but I can't claim innocence
Oh God could it be the weather
Oh God why am I here
If love isn't forever
and it's not the weather
Hand me my leather
This beautiful nude was inspired by a photograph and as I was painting, this song that I love by Tori Amos kept running through my mind. The lyrics are woven in amongst the lace. She's black and white with splashes of pink and tiffany blue. I couldn't help but fall in love with her! Being naked for me is a way of life but being naked or stripped bare can also mean baring your soul - they both ring true for me.
