self portrait 10 :hiding
in wooden box: acrylic paint, bracelet from india, collaged match box, wool, collaged paper, sparkle paint, stamps, bead, shell, rock, marbles, glass globules, photograph (of me. the reason my face looks "white" is because i am wearing white face paint.....to accentuate the "hiding"), plastic berries, skull
14" X 11" X 3 "
it has the lime green paint i use in all the backgrounds of my self portraits (as a unifying element) .
the sides are all painted but are not show in this photograph. i tried to take a photo of this at an angle so you could see the sides, but that didn't work out.
on the sides are "stamp" faces and green glass globules. on the top are three black marbles.
the inside has collaged faces and hanging down under the bracelet ( which i bought in india) is a collaged match box that i made.

WOW! When I first saw this the thought that came into my mind was "Jennifer showing her Durga power!"
from Wikipedia:
An embodiment of creative feminine force (Shakti), Durga exists in a state of svātantrya (independence from the universe and anything/anybody else, i.e., self-sufficiency) and fierce compassion.Durga manifests fearlessness and patience, and never loses her sense of humor, even during spiritual battles of epic proportion.
Excellent work!
You really need to think outside the box! LOL
wow -- a fabulous self-portrait!
I am speechless! Great, to put it mildly!
wonderful concept, self irony is a great quality I think !
I LOVE this! One of your strongest, best works! :)
love Your work,so much
compelling work
ALWAYS SUPERB!
wow, this is marvelous Jennifer. I understand the desire to hide, yet you reveal your vulnerabilities so beautifully, hugs, Lisa
Great work,Jennifer !!

Hiding in plain site-I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes it all comes with us, even when we try to hide. Excellent self portrait.
wow, this is amazing jennifer...i am surprised to hear that you are on the fence about it..
this makes me want to take my sefies into 3d..so many cool details, and the best part is you..your pose and the way you are sitting so nonchalantly amoungst your signature creations..
GoOOOooOOd morninG, geNius!!!
Excellent creation as always!! Enjoy your newweek dear Jennifer, hugs from Munich!!
powerful
Groovy!!! Which one are you?...LOL
This is really cool. Nice piece of art.
What I think on your "hiding" self portrait... Take photos of both sides and post them underneath this image. You have done that before and we love to see all sides of your art...!
Really a wonderful composition. Really artistic. A clear fav. I enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing.
We must be due the next masterpiece by now!
Eccellente, Jennifer. Ciao
What a self-portrait, Jennifer !!! I have often looked at it now ... It's rather confusing for myself with so many items of your prolific symbol universe ! Full of imagination and an outburst of creativity, vivid colour and the mysterious contrast of showing so much of yourself, but hiding it in all these symbols ....Cheers to your great creativity!!!
Fantastic self portrait creation!
great and genious
lovely work.
Bonita captura ,buen trabajo,gracias por su visita y comentario,que tengas un feliz dia,saludos cordiales desde Cádiz-España.
That shouting head would cast anyone into hiding! The wishes of the best and ideals are left infront, maybe they will protect agains some of those low-lying demons there.. ;) Unique work!
wonderful concept, self irony is a great quality I think !
,.~* Nice To See You *~.,
Wonderfully creative and colourful
This is fabulous Jennifer
We found you!!!!
superb
Your work makes one happy!! :-))
WOW!...Amazing work! Great picture! Beautiful work, Jennifer!
Just great!
In this one Jennifer I feel that you have been lowered into an environment that you are not entirely satisfied with or feel unhappy about, there are thing that try to make you settled but your inner feeling is I am not sure.
I think that it's superb !
love it !!!
Fantastic, original and unique as usual, dear Jennifer :-)
It looks like you; still though, immobile...I know you are Active, Animated, Artistic and Vibrant.....Here you are listening, carefully deciding, hearing opinions in Surround Sound...absorbing...And then you know (I know) you will arise, head up and toss aside trivia; concentrate on the real and actual and important....and be creative...
estus erare. Al mi ege pla;as la libereco en via sinteno precipe, vi aspektas trankvila, tre paca dum via irka;o faras ju;ojn pri via agado. Gratulojn pro via esprimo de libereco, ;ar oni estas libere en la animo kaj menso unue ol ;io.
translation: I greatly pleases the freedom in your attitude especially, you look calm, very peaceful during your environment makes judgments about your action. Congratulations on your expression of freedom, because it is free in the soul and mind first that was all.
Great image
Fabulous rich colours and so many objects and materials used towards the finished artwork! A fabulous "key chain" effect with your face paint and the oriental clothes, as black and red are somewhat a traditional colour! Beautifully creative!
