Hiya, made this self-portrait this weekend. I made it for the fanzine "Trading Stories with the Leaves" which will be inspired on Versus. I tried to put into an image what I think is the 'feel' of that album...

Thanks ahead!!

Take Care ppl,
Francisca.

    Nothing speaks VS to me like a self-portrait of Francisca.

    Wow, ...

    And the winner is ... *drumroll* Francisca !!

    it's definitely good enough for the zine! It makes me think of the cover of a scary movie or a psychological tragedy.
    Whatever, ... it's VS. :D

    I feel your self-portrait has captured the mood and vibes of songs such as Daughter, Go, Elderly Woman and Indifference. Very nice photo.

    Now worries though, I am a very happy chappy!
    I was just working late behind my laptop when I saw the reflection of the light and myself in the door opposite of me and really liked the surreal look of it.. Had been listening to VS that day as well to get some inspiration for the zine and it just seemed to fit and so I started shooting away a bit.
    Must say that art sometimes brings out the dark side in me...oh well, it is being put to good use... ;)
