This blog is about The Blood Portrait Project. For this project I have learned safe venipuncture technique to be able to draw blood from an individual and paint their portrait with that blood. Enjoy! www.LaraSalmon.com

"just me and my broken heart"

made with black ink and my blood

If I was sad in the summertime You showered my heat with salt tears

When defeat rang in the fall You brewed me kettles of comradeship

Loneliness lingered this winter But your voice came every day

And now spring. Your void is bleeding When it clots I imagine I’ll be someone new
