History with Hilary - January 9

On January 9, 1943, Scott Walker (Noel Scott Engel) was born! This image is based on the cover of his album Scott 3. You can see the image here:

I associate Scott Walker with a NY-based singer I know, David Driver (http://daviddriver.com/), who performs the Scott Walker songbook. David was in the original cast of Rent. I met him through Loser's Lounge... When he sings, he makes everyone swoon.

I know this was supposed to be about Scott Walker, but that's where it went. :)

When I first decided to do this photo, I tried taking a photo of my own eye, made up. But I decided to use my husband's eye, with the reflection of me.

Hope you like it!

What is History With Hilary?
Every day, I take a self-portrait based on that day in history! The plan is to eventually make a book and/or calendar!

Select prints from my History With Hilary are for sale. Proceeds help to support the project, which is getting a little pricey! View them at Etsy!

I'm also accepting donations, including costumes, wigs, fabric, and props! Please email me at historywithhilary@gmail.com.
