HINDU REALNESS

This is a fantastic series. Flawless styling. I found a place where I can buy the comprehensive 18 dvd mythology collection and it's perfect for me because I want a deep infusion of Hinduism, I just get distracted when reading religious texts. I need this:

A photo I made a while ago of a young lady as baby Krishna. I met her and I said "You look like a baby Krishna!" and we did it! Styling and makeup assistance by Jimmy Helvin.

I have been particularly engaged with Lord Hanuman and recently bought a beautiful Indian yellow gold amulet of Him.


The many looks of Meena & Ramya as Durga Amman:

I walk down more out of the way streets with charm. I'm noticing the stars more in the sky & I sometimes lye in the moonbeam coming through my skylight late at night with the lights out. Something is stirring. R

SUNSHINE - IMAGES OF MY FRIEND BY REAVIS EITEL

Hair on Kali shoot by Jimmy Helvin as well as assistance in makeup and styling.


She actually close to fainted during the preparation and placement of the shot. The very heavy grease makeup didn't breathe and Jimmy used her real hair to style. She was packed in sweats with a Eastern Mountain Sports harness under the sari which was hung from the story above and anchored on the terrace. This is what really did it, but she was a trooper and instead perched on a ladder, as the harness was eventually squeezing her to death. Her entire spirit and sentiment was terrifyingly Kali from the start of the grease application and the mood of set was truly electric. We were not alone! R

HINDU WEDDING 4TH OF JULY AFTERNOON

Getting ready was a scene and the ceremony was long and complex.


Sunshine took me

She was in a purple punjabi, had on lavender and blue eyeshadow and wore big black and white pearl jewelry and beautifully jewel encrusted heels she bought in Asia - I wore a white punjabi, antique spectacles with a platinum bridge and gold filled temples, Kali and Buddha necklaces with bits of bone beads carved into skulls, a jade and an emerald charm and my mirror ring the size of a coffee table. Last minute silver flip flops from Payless (with a heel biscuit!).
