Artworks by Katie West, a.k.a. “Avolare”:

In her own words:

“These days, my main focus in photography is self portraits. I do this for a few reasons; one I think self portraiture is some of the most interesting photography and all my favourite photographers are great self portrait artists. Two, it’s something I can do whatever I want - I don’t need to wait for a model, or a studio or anything. That way I can capture exactly what I’m feeling in that moment. And speaking of feelings, it’s rather theraputic. :)”
