Jamie Daneil

         I'm really just a girl on a journey to find herself, just as everyone else. I am driven by my passions and ruled by an insatiable hunger for the arts. As someone living with bipolar depression and anxiety disorder, I hope to prove that these things do not have to take over.

          We all hit bumps along the way, and my intention is to offer support and guidance to those who need it. I want to push society forward and help mold it into a happier environment. I believe in a world where people feel comfortable in their own skin. Free of hate.

         SKIN project is very precious to me. It has been an amazing healing journey, and hopefully it will be a life-long one as well. I am not a photographer. Not by nature. It is not an area that I've mastered. This began as therapy and is growing faster than I could have thought. The poetry here is real, very honest and personal. Please enjoy reading it as much I enjoyed writing it. 

"I am an empty corridor. There are no echoing footsteps,

I am long forgotten, deserted, there is a ghost here,

it haunts my sad achy bones,

roams the halls of my vacant hearts,

you can find peace here,

even in the eerie streaks of sunlight through the dust covered windows,

the void will wrap itself around you like a lover,

you are home here in my soul."
