Diary of a fat artist: Thesis download

Thesis download

I didn't think that when I finished my thesis, that I should have posted the actual pages of my thesis here.
I'm terrible at writing my thoughts in anything but stream of consciousness type poetry. So I forewarn any readers, it might not be THE BEST thesis, but it's heartfelt and the process of putting together my project was moving for me and the people involved.

Also, as I was writing this, a commercial for eDiets came over the TV and I wanted to throw my laptop at the screen.

My final doll lineup. Look at the gorgeous bodies!

What's this about and why am I here?

I began this blog to track the progress of my thesis and to reach out to women who were looking for other people who were taking a journey into body acceptance.

I used this blog as a process of learning to accept myself, laugh at myself and hopefully an outlet to grow as a person and an artist, I wasn't only talking about fat acceptance.

My thesis was about being skeptical of what the media is force-feeding us, also how we look at ourselves and each other. Body hate is counterproductive to healthy living and positive interpersonal relationships. I still believe "Fat bitch" and "skinny bitch" should only be used in the most loving of terms.
