just finished this tonight, it is sort of a test-run for a larger 3-paneled drawing i'm going to do.

"the transition is hard to deal with"

"the transition is hard to deal with," 2009
44"x56"

this is what i've been working on for the past couple of weeks. it was a lot of scissoring and a lot of exacto-ing. i thought it was going to be a purely un-drawn drawing with paper on paper, but once i added the TV, i realized i'd drawn on that a bit. but, for the most part it is glued-on paper.
the piece came from a sketch i'd been making of the symbols that have occupied my drawings for the past couple years. i liked the idea of making something without me in it, and it forced me to take a different route than i usually do. i'd gotten used to making drawings with a certain formula and it was a good exercise to start it in a new way. i'm quite happy with it. i still need to give it an official title, but i suppose it will always be (the big gold drawing).
***finally came up with the official title, Nov 29th.
