Ah yes... my BFA thesis show. This was an exploration of personal mythologies and the human imprint on the natural world. Every week or so, I scoured thrift stores for paintings others had deaccessioned from their own collections. I painted them, glued rhinestones on them, and glued them to each other. 10+ years later, I can't say I have any deeper thoughts to share other than it was a fun process, and I don't know where any of these paintings are now.

If memory serves me,
Ben Hovland took these photos in exchange for beer. 





And in case you need further proof that I went to art school, below you will find this strapless deer leotard I made out of a faux fur coat. No, I'm not embarrassed ;-)
