50 shades of Black Metal...





Back in the day, my then boyfriend was erm, a 'singer' in a Black Metal/Death Metal band, Malroin.

They were quite well known locally for their interesting stage antics and on more than one occasion Ximo was known to have set fire to his beard! The music was never to my personal taste but there's no denying the musicianship was formidable and everyone enjoyed the show! The makeup, the fire and whatever else may go down on the day...


 So one day, I decided to do yet another weird photo shoot and untypical book marketing strategy or at least raise a few laughs and eyebrows!

Another mad notion of mine-creativity strikes in a rather strange guise, well they do say an image speaks louder than words...

So here you have a modern day family portrait-an accurate portrayal of everyday family life in the 21st century-well in my universe anyway!

 My daughter and her psychiatric journal, the bored housewife whose only escape is my Novel, the decapitated doll, 'The Daily Mail' and '50 Shades of Grey' the literary sensation at the time and finally the mother/father in all her dark glory...

Life is full of irony in both the darkest and lightest of forms...

 Oh and i'd just like to point out that no inanimate object was harmed in the making of these photos...

RocknRoll!!!
