See, and I wasn't allowed to. It was "wordly" and sinful.
So look at me now!! I use my face as a canvas for the most colorful, artful
stuff I can come up with (ok, some days I go more natural).
I like colorful streaks in my hair and tend to the funky side of makeup.

It's not a reaction to over control at this point. It's just ME. I am an
artist. I LOVE color and funk and all things artsy. So it makes sense that
I'd extend it to my body. :)
