040 | 365 | Sticky Fingers - a photo on Flickriver

This self portrait is a recreation of the Rolling Stone's classic "Sticky Fingers" album cover.

The original was an Andy Warhol creation, and the model was Joe Dallesandro.

I got this idea from a friend who posted a photo that was reminiscent of Bruce Springstein's "Born in the USA." I suggested that he do "Sticky Fingers." He suggested that I might be better equipped. I love a challenge.

"I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom, but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living after love dies
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day "

Wild Horses (from "Sticky Fingers") - Rolling Stones
