DARE TO GO BARE? Bare-faced that is! If you haven’t heard about the  #NoMakeup Movement yet, I will give you a brief on it. Alicia Keys reports that she was beginning to feel like a chameleon in a recent interview on Lenny.  It sounds like she was tired of the certain mold women are brainwashed into thinking they have to fit into, and she just wanted to break free from that. Alicia Keys has started a #NoMakeup Movement and there are already millions of posts on Instagram.  Alicia is definitely a girl who’s on fire, wearing or not wearing makeup. :-)

In my opinion, I think you have to be comfortable in your own skin. If you don’t dare go bare, or don’t want to go bare, then do whatever you are comfortable doing. :-) I decided this morning to take photos of myself right out of bed, morning face, no makeup.  I dared to go bare to the whole world…do you? (It is okay if you don’t.) Take that makeup off and go bare…I agree with Alicia, it is liberating!

Post your bare photos, if you dare! Bare-faced that is! On Instagram. :-)

Before now, I only illustrated my own books, however, a few months back, I received a request from a brilliant Time Travel writer, Dennis Higgins, asking if I would do some illustrating for his book, “Steampunk Alice.” I jumped at the challenge. Aileen Aroma, a Social Media PR Agent, will be hosting a cover reveal on June 10, on Facebook. I hope you join us! 

P.S. I created the cover art, too.
