Glittering amethyst

The 1800's were skeezy.

Advent series: priests and professors

Darkroom print of a photo from a book, collaged and burned. More here.

orange power goo-splosion

Black and white print with neon orange paint. Seemed like a good idea at the time.

Advent series: INRI

Big J, hangin' out. With a very, very tiny old man. Also known as a "homunculus"! I love that I just got to use that word.

Advent series: imperialism

This is one of my favorites of this series, visually.

Advent series: sickbed

Burned silver print.

Advent series: wound

This is one of a series of photo-collages I did a while back. They combine photos of books of Renaissance paintings with various religious text.

purple print-out portrait

This was printed out on a really old (possibly dot matrix) printer, on the back of a piece of photo paper.

sponge skull

Hand holding a little spongy skull thing. That paper it's mounted to is something I made by typing gibberish into the computer and then moving the paper back and forth while it printed. Spooooooky. I was in like 9th grade, give me a break.

no see hear speak

Clare hates this one. I usually don't make things this creepy anymore.

skullteeth

A close up shot of the skull from this picture. I covered the negative with random scraps of scotch tape. After exposing the image, I created the black strips on the top and bottom by covering up most of the paper and letting the light burn those areas in.

color eye

Black and white print, with a scrap from a magazine behind the cutout.

cinnamon boy

The black strips are electrical tape. The print is a manipulated photo of a photo in a book. It's nailed to a board. The board was soaked in mouthwash for a week. It smelled really good for a while.
