Bymichelle March 5, 2011July 27, 2022

Swept Clean

Bymichelle March 3, 2011July 27, 2022

Getting Over Myself

Bymichelle February 25, 2011July 27, 2022

 I just can’t seem to.  Self portraits, that is.  I just thought that phase in my life was over.  It’s not so much that I love them, but more because…

Old Inspiration
