Artist's Comments

Another picture from the Miami shoot. We took pictures in an area that was COVERED in all kinds of interesting graffiti. In a little alley way, we found all the old paint buckets, brushes and spray paint they used to graffiti the place. Can you say props? :) I had fun with the makeup too. The model, Katie, has a diseas called Trichotillomannia where you pull our your own hair, or in her case, eyelashes. We bought her a pair of false lashes for the shoot and by the end of the day, she didn't want to take them off. I think she liked knowing what it felt like to have lashes like everyone else. She even asked for a pair in her Christmas stocking this year.

The title is actually the type of a very rare rainbow, which I thought was fitting since this picture consists of so many different colors.

Well the colors are great, what does Gei Sai mean? Overall, I love the phot. :]

Well, thank you! :) You know, to be completely honest, I had no idea what it meant when I took this shot. We just found that weird fan-type in an alley-way behind the building. But since you asked, I looked it up. Turns out it's the name of some type of art contest that took place at the beginning of this month in Miami. The name "GEISAI" is derived from the Japanese word for "art festival." Go figure.

haha well it goes with the shot then. :) Who ever did the graffiti in the background before you guys took the shot, seems very intriguing too.
