Julia Randall - Blown (2011-12) - Color pencil on paper
Artist’s statement:
“Bubblegum initially connotes innocent, cheeky pleasure, yet the fragile skin of gum also points to the susceptibility of the body, and the dreaded passage of time.
Bubblegum is an insignificant, disposable material, and the pleasure taken from its flavor is fleeting. The bubble is a vessel that holds our breath, for a brief moment, in a physical form.
Seen as a group, the inflating/deflating bubble imagery is a visual manifestation of breathing. They are decidedly anthropomorphic, and can appear abject, fragile, and as vulnerable as the human body.”
I love this. I love it even more because I was super grossed out until I read that it was bubblegum.

i love this hair color.
I have this hair color :D I don’t think I’ll ever change it, though I do occasionally have to restrain myself from concocting a hybrid of pastel purple and blue and playing with the ends.
But that said, I do think I’ll do a streak/ends of a special ~*mystery color*~ (that isn’t that hard to figure out if you know me or have been following me for a while) during summer…my hair stylist and I are already planning how to get the peerrrrfect shade
