Hmmm... I may have put the photos up in a confusing order. The one with the brighter colors is the older shot, with more underpainting showing. As the painting nears completion, the overall color scheme becomes more subdued, though the saturated colors are meant to still come through in places, making a richer and more textured appearance.
I've started this blog as catalog/display for my artwork, particularly my ongoing projects. At the moment, that means "Shell Game" (where I buy clothing, alter the clothing in ways that are not immediately perceptible, like lining a pocket with pink fake fur or painting on an underskirt, and then return the clothing in the hopes that my altered pieces will be resold and/or found, creating moments of the inexplicable, critiquing consumer culture, tricking people into buying art, etc.), "Post-it Books" (where I write stories on post-it notes, and stick them in library books in such a way that they entwine with and riff off of the original story), and my paintings (which are, well, paintings).
I would say more about me in this "About Me", but the sneaky nature of some of my recent work begs a bit of stealth-mode. Suffice to say that I am very very good looking.
Yay for painting progress!
