Jonny Rae ⛼ “I know that I’m nothing like someone her family want me to be. If I find a way, would you walk it with me?” I felt inspired by the late Lil Peep’s music and wanted to form how I’d look as a tattooed rapper… 🖤

The Joker 🃏 “Madness is the emergency exit… You can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened. You can lock them away… FOREVER.” 🤡 Just having a little fun… Wanted to challenge myself. Digital makeup is tough hahaha 🤪

Dr. Manhattan 🏙🌌 “Why does my perception of time distress you? Everything is preordained, even my responses. We’re all puppets Laurie, I’m just a puppet who can see the strings.” Giving yourself a bald head in photoshop is tricky… Especially when you have long hair 🙃 Very pleased with how this one turned out though

Forgiveness 🖤 Circa 2018 This was made before a major cessation… It feels like a lifetime ago. I never had any previous intentions of posting this piece. It was purely my own. I needed to make clear that which was present in my life at the time. Some form of visual reconstruction so that I could dismantle it… Now it’s not mine any longer. It’s not a part of my truth. So, here 🤲 Maybe it will resonate with you 💙
The Witness 🪟 “This one question – ‘What do I know for certain?’- is tremendously powerful. When you look deeply into this question, it actually destroys your world. It destroys your whole sense of self, and it’s meant to. You come to see that everything you think you know about yourself, everything you think you know about the world, is based on assumptions, beliefs, and opinions – things you believe because you were taught or told that they were true. Until we start to see these false perceptions for what they really are, consciousness will be imprisoned within the dream state… As soon as we allow ourselves to realize, “My gosh, I know almost nothing: I don’t know who I am. I don’t know what the world is. I don’t know if this is true. I don’t know if that is true,” something within our being opens up. When we are willing to step into the unknown and its inherent insecurity, and not run back to anything for cover or for comfort – when we are willing to stand as if facing an oncoming wind and not wince we can finally face our actual self.” – Adyashanti
📖 “Truth is a very high standard. Truth is not a plaything. To tell what is true within ourselves is not to tell what we think; it is not to tell our opinion. It is not to dump the garbage can of our mind onto somebody else. All of that is illusion, distortion, projection. Truth is not unloading our opinions onto someone. That is not truth. Truth is not telling our beliefs about things. That is not truth. Those are ways that we actually hide from truth. Truth is much more intimate than that. When we tell the truth, it has the sense of a confession. I don’t mean in a confession of something bad or wrong, but I mean the sense that we come completely out of hiding. Truth is a simple thing. To speak the truth is to speak from a sense of total and absolute unprotectedness.” – Adyashanti
Fugue: /fyo͞oɡ/ a state or period of loss of awareness of one’s identity, often coupled with flight from one’s usual environment Segment that I learned for my role in Bones of Crows. I had never played a piano before but I wanted to atleast feel as if I could coalesce with the instrument in my scene. To create the transportive quality that music lends. Felt the definition of fugue was topical for the film. @bonesofcrowsfilm Canadian theatrical release is June 2nd, 2023 🎼: Bach: The Art of Fugue, BWV 1080
