i create my own form of art.
i'm multifaceted, and unfortunately, most [people] are unable to see all the sides.
imitation isn't the most sincere form of flattery when you're the original.
art, like beauty, has its own element of torture to it.
by definition, i am perfectly flawed - the only difference between myself and most is that i don't mind.
outer beauty is often diagnosed as a curse, not a blessing in disguise; i truly could not agree more.
i live to inspire in one fashion or another.
i believe that inner-beauty matters above all, and far more than any form of artificial beauty.
i am keen on conversations with substance, as i need constant stimulation.
i love interacting with artists of various mediums, seeing as art is a true passion of mine. offering suggestions and opinions is enjoyable, as well.
criticism is welcomed and appreciated greatly; to be able to return said criticism can be of interest, but depends upon the other artist's desire for it. frequently asked questions:01. how did autumn edows come about?
- back in 2003, i was creating a new alias after rejecting crippled / alluring spider. autumn was a nick-name i acquired in junior high based after a character for a story i had written about a girl who contained everything i craved to have, artistically-speaking. finally, the last name edows came about after reading up on jack the ripper and one of his victims.
02. who is autumn edows to you?
- autumn edows is the inner-artist inside of myself that exposes the core of creativity for all to see.
03. has drug-use influenced your work?
- certainly not, but imagine how i would be if it did!
04. do you have skeletons in your closet? if so, will you tell me about them?
- the skeletons in my closet are going to remain there until if, by some off chance, i become famous. once said action happens, i'll happily share how "exciting" my life has been, but furthermore, why & how it drove me to where i am now.
05. do you think you're beautiful?
- i'm not vain, so not really. do i think i have talent? now, that's a maybe. ;)
06. what has inspired you?
- music, art, my own mental state, nature, poetry, photography, personal experiences, self-love&hate, sex, love, hate, murder, reading various books, and ironinically enough, drugs [the addictive/manipulative side to using based off of watching those close to me suffer]. all happiness and tragedy has inspired me, and partially helped create who i am, though has failed to define me.
07. what repulses you?
- the way people treat each other, and often fail to look past physical appearance.
08. has your musical taste influenced your art in any way?
- music has influenced me heavily, but i owe a lot of it to marilyn manson, and his older work [portrait/anti-christ]; he allowed for me to use everything that i have to my advantage.
