This series is a continuing exploration of the words gender, feminine and masculine. 

What does each word truly mean? Are we to only be defined by the makeup we wear or the hairstyle we choose? How does your own personality change as more traditionally and ultimately exaggerated feminine products are attached to a male body? What happens when we remove most of the personal characteristics of our faces and become blank canvases?

I am actively seeking out models to continue this project.
