Was getting some of my images ready to be made into prints today so I thought I’d make a guide for anyone else interested in making prints of their work :D

"Few actors transform themselves as often as Joaquin Phoenix. The actor almost always changes his body for roles. Here are his most unbelievable transformations."

Directors on working with Joaquin Phoenix ~

If you’re a genius and an actor, it essentially means that you can do things that nobody else can do in front of a camera, and make people feel things, as an audience, that they wouldn’t necessarily feel, even with the same script and if a different actor was playing the same role. They technically have to be what normal people would assign as “crazy” because they don’t think like so-called “normal people.” It’s not about performing, per se, it’s about being, and existing in the role, and knowing. That’s what actors like Marlon Brando and Joaquin Phoenix provide. Peter Sellers, etc. Sellers would say that he had no personality of his own, and that what his personality was behind closed doors wasn’t anything special. But… that he could become other people in front of a camera easily because he was just different from “normal people.” What actors like this can do can not be duplicated. They are geniuses and they know they are different from everyone else, and they don’t care, because it’s who they are. I use a quote often about each of them that was originally the title of an article about Marlon Brando, because it’s just true: “The king who would be man.” They know they can do what they do: they just don’t give a fuck. There is no ego involved in their real lives. That kind of ego is toxic, really. Because it’s just lies, irl. The only times they access this ego is on screen, not in their real lives. That’s one of the factors that makes that type of actor unique. They don’t get off on interviews or hearing themselves talk, etc, like most people would. They just don’t. Most actors are just hacks who lie well, and will jokingly tell you this. But with genius actors, there is no lie. It’s truth. Truth that they have created. The ego that these special actors can exhibit, if need be, is only on the screen, not during whatever else in their real lives (unless they need it) because they don’t care. They are existing just like everyone else, but almost in the opposite way. They have no need for it otherwise. Otherwise, they are usually just unassuming, soft spoken reclusives who actively avoid people and attention. They are geniuses in the art form, and if they want to flip the switch on for whatever they choose, they can. It becomes truth. That’s why people will still be mesmerized and studying these select individuals long after any of us are here. … What they have could be decribed as an “it factor,” but sometimes the stars align and produce these kinds of people. I would even argue that these genius individuals aren’t really crazy: everyone else is. It’s about quality, not quantity, right?
