I call photoshop on the tattoo!

Is it just me, or does the shoulder tattoo look like a piece of her has been sliced off?

Omigod, you're right! How weird...

Maybe that's where her vestigial arm used to be.

ugh, can we get a new photo stat!?

Why doesn't she have a butt crack?

I am not enjoying this photo at all. Andrea, I'm praying there was some airbrushing. And it does look like her shoulder got chopped off.

"why doesn't she have a butt crack?"

Ahh, the simple pleasures of highbrow art criticism! ;)

girls have cooties.

i think i like the chair, what i can see, but i could NEVER sit it in now. =)

Painfully thin girl...

Totally cosmic Nice form and a beautiful tatoo. Don't see why some folkz r gettin' so wigged out. Haven't you ever seen a girl's tatooed ass before?

I want to keep an open mind and am trying to raise to the level of "highbrow art criticism! ;)" but I can't.

There is a certain "je ne sais quoi" that goes beyond the absence of a butt crack, in this picture that I find slightly disturbing.

And Pat(too) I had a good chuckle reading your comment. So you!!!

Louis--
Dancing on a chair, yes.
Sitting on one, no. ;)

Okay, time for me to weigh in on the butt crack thing. I've been taking life drawing lessons on and off for 12 of my 27 years, so while I can't tell you where my liver is, I do know that most people have a divot between the top of their deltoid muscle and the pointy boney bit at the top of their shoulder blade when they raise their arms. [Try it. It's fun!]

I don't think she's mysteriously missing a butt crack, but she is skinny, and she probably doesn't have a particularly, um, generous ass... She's a skinny thing, but I don't think she's radically undernourished. I've seen the ribs-in-back thing on life models who are less skinny, actually, and it's not that unusual to see them clearly, given that she's straining forward and tucking her head down. We see almost half of her left forearm in the picture, so she's really wrapping her arms around her ribcage. That elbow has to be on the opposite knee to do that.

I don't think the tattoo is photoshopped on, although I doubt it was permanent. If you look closely, it's slightly asymetrical, but very well painted. Compare each brushstroke with its opposite, and you'll see the minor differences.

Well said, Mary!

That's an industrial utility stool - you know, the kind with the steel seat that spins up and down?
