PORTRAITS FOR LIFE

Artistically Yours… by the French artist Miki

Selfportrait #2: Am I rock’n roll?

Since I met Kev Moore, my life has changed totally: I AM HAPPY!

Totally happy.

There is just one thing which bothers me a little bit, but really, just a little bit. As you can imagine when you look at him, he loves long hair. He finds it rock’n roll. Now, I have quite wild hair and I could never tame it, and neither could the hairdressers from all around the world. This is the reason why I used to keep it not too long before I met Kevin. But now, he has forbidden me to cut it.

And now, because I am so happy, my body is happy too, and my hair is growing longer and wilder than ever. Most of the time, I keep it hidden under a golf hat when I go out, but well, at home it is different, and above all Kevin wants to see it sometimes, so I have to free it.

Just when he is away, gigging somewhere, like this weekend, I can’t stand this hair everywhere any more and I find I am forced to do something. Unfortunately I have nothing at home in the way of hair accessories which women normally have to help them. But this weekend, I had the fantastic idea to use these things one uses to hang wet clothes on a line (help, how are they called in English?) to tie my hair!

I wonder what Kevin will say when he sees my new look… will he find it rock’n roll?

Ah, by the way, there is something else which has changed since I met him:

I always wear his big Rock T-Shirts when I paint, and I love it!!

Well, to tell the whole truth, I alternate them with my Dad’s shirts, which are even bigger…

(not in the length, in the width!)

ATTENTION PLEASE!

I speak and read French, German, English, Spanish, and understand some others too…

so please don’t hesitate to leave a comment or to contact me in your own language!

  1. You would be more rock’n roll if you got yourself some rollers for your hair. I think Kev will like this. After all men like to undo their lover’s hair. It might take him a while though.

  2. Wow! I’m seriously blushing here! :-) the word for these new “hair-appliances” is PEGS Miki! Which we should convert into the acronym P.E.G.S. -standing for Perfectly Eccentric Girlie Style!

    Susan- I can only hope you are joking about hair rollers being rock and roll!! In the U.K. it’s about as uncool as you can get, so I’ll go for the “peg-look” every time!
    For an example of how un-rock and roll rollers really are, check this video out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GEfKQOH-2w
