Description Full Title: These Days, They Tell Me It's All About Networking

My most recent of the ones I've posted so far. This is 5 seperate pieces of cardboard hand-stitched together. Yes, it was a long and laborious process. Yes, it was worth it. Zoomed details of this image at [link]

{Assemblage with cardboard, magazine clippings, masking tape, india ink, acrylic paint, and heavy string}

This is really stand out work. It's not only a cool collage-painting work but, it's also shapely. I like the idea a lot and I am glad to see something like that, it's original. you said you had trouble taking a good picture of it and that's a shame cause we always want to share the best possible version. Never fear though cause it looks kick-ass as it is!

Why thank you! It's definitely a deviation from the usual stuff I had been doing at the time. That's kinda what made it fun for me.

well, i'm realizing this image looks really washed out compared to the original. i'm gonna fix that in photoshop and upload a more accurately-colored version. if you saw the original, you'd see that it's just different colors of paint dry-brushed on top. well, first i brush thin glue on top, which, when dried, gives a nice texture. then, i'll brush thin coats of color over and over on top until i have the effect i want. thanks for asking!
