Hi Daryl,
We had a self portrait project for a school assignment. I'm American and am married to an Australian and have Permanent Residency here so for me a large part of who I am is being part of 2 separate cultures. I mixed up the words to the American and Australian anthems and painted them on my face. I just used face paint for the flags - my eyelids were just painted with face paint in the same way as the rest of my face. MM said you had to post 4 pictures of people and I haven't really worked with people yet so had limited options of what to put up.
Cheers
Kate

Now that is different.

What was the inspiration for it?

And, just out of curiousity, were the eyelids made up in the same fashion?
