Anita Fixx - Resurrection

May 27, 2010 17:37

Some day soon I am going to make an actual biography for this character, but for the time being, I thought that posting a sort of mini-introduction was in order.

The first time I ever put on clown face was...gee...seven or eight years ago?

Unfortunately, there is a negative reputation that comes along with being a clown, such as having people mistake you for an ICP fan.  [Nothing wrong with being such, but I'm not a fan and don't feel like explaining this to those who are confused.]  Or, like me, you were semi-traumatized by clowns as a young child and find them to be really creepy.  My problem with them as a kid, was that they popped balloons and I did not like that at all.

However, there are also people out there who love clowns...and maybe even want to make love to them.  Which I happen to agree with, b/c nothing is funnier than good clown porn, but I digress.

Back in what I like to refer to as 'the good ol' days' of performing in the confines of the Pine Barrens in South Jersey, Anita Fixx was created and officially christened a clown by my late friend Jon.  He had an awesome gutter punk hobo clown, and we did some really raunchy, debaucherous things.  Those were the crazy days when we weren't afraid to bleed or cover ourselves in piles of whipped cream pies.  Man do I miss that.

When asked to perform for a local show about four years ago, it was made known that the people participating had to do so in the guise of a clown.  Of course I was excited to have the chance to don the clown face once again.  However, I do admit that I was quite rusty, and it took a while for me to find the right style for my face.

Fast forward to March of this year, when I decided to have some fun and resurrected Ms. Fixx one more time.  Of course I was thrilled to have executed such a nice face, considering I was a bit rusty with application and all.  Still have to find the right combination of elements, and want to have a couple of different variations just to mix it up,  but I definitely still love putting on the clown face.  Perhaps in the near future I will bring Ms. Fixx into the public for a rare performance or something like that.

Here a few of my favorite shots that depict the newest incarnation of Anita Fixx.  There are too many more right here.
