watch the killer lampshade scene here:

collage

after suffering for quite some time from artist block, i've recently fallen in love with the art of collage, both on the computer and on paper... an appropriate medium in the midst of recession when art materials seem oh-so-pricey. the answer: use whatever you can get your hands on.

"Sisyphus goes to Barney's", December 2008
spray paint, gouache, acrylic, watercolor, vellum, tape, ink, cardboard, pushpins, potato sack, plastic, on paper.
you can see the finished piece in the lustro/matani residence.


you may have seen these on facebook... i started to futz around with random images on the internet...


and my most recent work in progress...

cheers
