The Illustration Friday word of the week is disguise.
Consciousness is what we are, behind and above all else. But what disguise will I wear today? Will it be the artist, the lover or the friend? Will it be the neighbor, the daughter or the sister…or the writer, the gardener or the dreamer? What role will I play…what face will I wear today?
And will I be able to remember who I really am, all the while…?

Hi Susan, nice title! I love the dressed up bird on the beautiful tree,
Thanks a lot for your kind words on my submission!
Did you know you can directly link to your girl with the silverhands?: http://uncoveredcoverart.wordpress.com/2011/07/28/the-girl-with-silver-hands/
Goodluck with your votes, you are going good, well deserved!!!
Susan, I’ve voted for you!
Love your post and illustration for this week. I can so relate.
I’m not sure if I relate to the woman or the goose in a dress more. Maybe that’s the point? Love the painting.
Lovely work, a little mysterious!
Very nice and soft, love the woman and her hair.
Heisann!
Hope so, Susann ;:OD)
Beautiful done!
Susan, how are you?
thousand years ago that I did not come here!
Precisely at this time I’m hearing a song that says, “trying to be somebody”
Why are not we more often? I do not know.
Your picture is a gem, as always!
What is it about the spell you cast! It’s wonderful! I always so love your work and “disguise” is no exception — I’m always wondering who I am at any given moment… You just create magic. Along those same lines, your comments always tug, make my heart skip a beat…thank you! I just love this community of support, thank you for being part of it!
Seems like the mask hides her from herself – love to pause with your images.
