Resolution #244: Work On A Fake Tan... Complete With Crazy Tan Lines...

Date: 9-1-2014

Due Date: 9-1-2014

Resolution: Now that I don't work on movies anymore I rarely see the sun. I couldn't really care less about the pigment of my skin, but I did always find it fun to see just how insane my tan lines would get over the summer.

Since summer is wrapping up and I have no plans to see the sun any time soon, I figured I'd recreate the fun with various forms of fake tanning sprays and creams.

Though I would love to recreate the crazy hat line don't think it would go over all that well at work. To make up for this disappointing exception I will create a Charlie Brown shirt pattern around my belly along with other fun designs on my arms and legs.

Hopefully, with my newfound appreciation of art, I'll come up with something interest.

We'll see.

 

Result #244: Now That I'm Living In San Diego Once Again… I Don't Need A Spray Tan To Replicate My Crazy Tan Lines… Making This A Failure…

 

Update #1: The Conclusion…

Date: 9-1-2015

Since moving from Seattle to San Diego I'm back to always being sort of tan. In no way are my tan lines as extreme as they are in the resolution image, but the white areas are no longer as white, so even if I were to add a spray tan to the equation I don't think that I can recreate the beautiful disaster that nature created back when I worked in Eastern Washington for an entire summer.

Who knows, now that I'm living in a land where there actually is sun these crazy tan lines may return on their own someday.

I'll let you know if that happens or if I do make any attempts to enhance my awkwardness with tan in a can.
