Drawing with Salt!!! This is so amazing!

Tim Burton equals my hero.

He was an odd boy who read Poe instead of fairytales...  His art work is amazing and creative with a subject matter that focuses on monsters and dysmorphia. Check out his interactive web gallery.

Also, please check out the video below. It is his first animated short that he made while still working at Disney.  The film is called Vincent Price. It is a depiction of Burton when he was a boy and how he felt "different" than the other children.

A little black dress..

Is a small black mess.

This piece is called Little Black Dress.  I created it for everyone who has ever felt like their negative image of themselves has defeated them.  Look at my character.  She is awkward. She is fat. She is a sad monster.  She is me.  What is your little black dress?
