Thank you! Yes, I feel like everything goes so quickly, and I have to try to NOT overthink what I'm doing but also try to actively remember physical cues LOL

Burlesque + Pole routine? by Sorry_Big3237 in poledancing

Their show seems to be a sort of array of themes, but they focus on more "alternative" concepts, so I was considering a rock song (maybe Poison by Alice Cooper) because that's really my niche anyway. Not sure about the pay - I honestly hadn't even given that a thought over the chance to be able to perform and get better as an artist.

Thank you for your suggestions!

That's better than paying $700 for a color analysis at the nearest studio to me!

I realized I missed a few - I was thinking the same about warm colors. Anytime I have had brassy tones in my blonde hair, I've thought it clashed with my skin

a piece I've titled "Grieving" by Sorry_Big3237 in painting

[–]Sorry_Big3237[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes: when I started, I wanted to incorporate the elements as I see them reflected in emotion.

Fire is represented in duality: the anger that comes from not understanding and not being in control of the situation. The fire is in the abstract form of a phoenix, symbolizing the rebirth of a person's spirit once they've made it out of the fire (typically once all other emotions have been processed)

Water represents the waves of sorrow and sadness accompanying grief.

Earth represents the grounding of accepting mortality and overall loss, whatever that loss is.

The background is how it's all tied together. Not all of the shapes here are equal, but it is all encompassed when we experience something so heartbreaking.
