Loathing 1998
I was not very happy when I was doing this one. Living in a tiny hole of a place on Woodland Ave in San Rafael, it was really dark and gloomy. Like deep sea fish, my paintings lost most of their color and became albino. Very strange. The only thing of color is that damn purple couch. I guess I was trying to tell myself I needed a rest! Soft comfortable couches!! AAAHHHH!!!
The original picture of the angry guy was made in my sketchbook on a bus on the way to the subway station to go to the Hirschorn Museum when I was interning in college. Now that's alot of run-on information!! :/ I remember the bus shaking and shaking... I could not draw. After a while I got used to it and this guy came out of the pen. The NYPD is a reference to the years I spent in New York.. DUH. And it's a straight jacket. Figure that one out. :(
The tiny head of Christina Aguilera is a joke Jonah played on me when I was scanning these paintings. Thanks Jonah. You fucker. :)
