Denise Masino inspires Art exhibit

From @Denise_Masino - I made an interesting discovery about an article that included me today… It’s funny how you never know who you are inspiring and in what ways. The Article featured on i-D online reads – Inspired by body building porn star Denise Masino and cartoon legend Dennis the Menace, Daniel David Freeman is the fervent felt-tipping creator of warped superhero illustration series ‘Azealea’s Amazon’.

To read the article and to see more of Daniel’s work inspired by me and other body builders read the article here.

I've wanted to have Marina Lopez in the labs for awhile and finally got her in the pump room. An extra 50 lbs of pure muscle looks great on her.

Female Muscle Morphs

How much muscle can a woman have? In real life, it’s limited to personal commitment, training and pharmaceutical aid. In the digital world, it’s only limited by imagination.

Muscle Morphs have been around since Adobe Photoshop’s release in 1990 and female muscle growth fans have used it to visualize ultimate muscular development. Of course they’re not real, but look at the typical bodybuilder from 30 years ago versus today. What’s to say these aren’t a glimpse of what’s to come.

Just because photos can be digitally enhanced, should they? Morphs have been criticized for devaluing the hard work and training of athletes. One competitor commented that a picture of mine was “extremely offensive” to her. The image in question was requested by friend Latia Del Riviero who wanted to see how she looked with an “extra 30 lbs of pure muscle”. I may have given her a bit more. Ruthie Lucchesi also requested an enhancement and I asked her “do bodybuilders think morphs are insulting?” She told me “I think most female bodybuilders would not be insulted because obviously we love having huge muscles.”

Most do it for free since these “found” images actually infringe on photographer’s copyright. It’s like musicians “sampling” others music. Whenever possible, I’ve tried to contact them and ask permission. Some love them, some don’t. Morphs are an underground art form with a limited audience, no pay and sometimes hostile reactions. So why make them? I still haven’t figured that out.

Zoa Linsey Spotlight

I grew up in a very conservative family. Self-discipline, time management and a strong work ethic was part of my daily life. The focus was more on academic and musical excellence, not competitive sports. By studying music, I developed patience and the ability to set long-term goals. I am thankful for parents who gave me the foundation to achieve my goals and believe in myself.

When I was 17, my parents divorced. I began to develop eating disorders ranging from anorexia, bulimia and obsessive and unhealthy exercise habits that spanned across the next ten years. I dealt with my private confusion by focusing on my achievements and became very successful in my school and career.

I studied marketing and communications and began work in the corporate marketing world. I enjoyed this part of my life but was having more fun before and after work doing half- marathons, biking, weight training, trail-running as well as teaching spinning. It wasn’t until after competing in my first bodybuilding show in 2000, I realized I had finally found something that I had a passion for. Bodybuilding transformed my eating disorders into an athletic endeavor instead of an unhealthy, unrealistic body image issue. Bodybuilding fit me perfectly – I enjoyed being disciplined, setting long term goals and training hard. The bonus was I found that I loved to compete and it woke up something inside of me that I didn’t know I had.

By 2003 I was self-employed with my own business, Powergirl Fitness. My personal mission was to help individuals empower and achieve their own personal best. To help people understand how to be emotionally and physically healthy and live a complete life.

My personal philosophy for training my clients has only been enriched by the personal struggles and body image issues I have struggled with in my past. Every experience I have had, positive and negative has brought me to this place where I am able to encourage and motivate other people to step beyond their own self-perceived limitations. I’ve been so fortunate to meet so many great friends along the way.

Trudy Says...

What do Female Bodybuilders & Fitness Models think of their Area Orion morphs? Back in 2009 I asked Tom Nine to show this to Trudy Ireland to get her impression.

He said, "she was certainly amused by it."

ah well, I may have overdone it. Live and learn.
