giza / the jig is up

for friday’s “day of departure” rally in cairo

lee marvin

first attempt at a portrait. wanna do a lot more.

cake

this is the second part (see immediately below). this is all about cake and blood.

let them eat

originally was reading a film comment magazine about sofia coppola’s film about marie antoinette. this turned out to be the first of a two part series. when marie still had a head.

cold news

was at my mom’s and we sat around talking while i made this one. the notices are from the obituaries.

filthy lucre

getting a little fancier here. some fake gold leaf, dollar bills, religious imagery

blur 19

this is the first series that made me know i wanted to at least try a few of these, and see how long i could keep myself interested and entertained.

copy, original, copy

this is an early pop-like thing i did. i only made one. when my later work seemed to look better in sets i went back and copied the card twice, so that the center original wouldn’t be sitting alone.
