i picked up all these old photographs at out of the way thrift and antique stores. initially, i bought them because 1) i wanted to give them a home (finding these out in the world, available for purchase has always seemed a bit sad to me) and 2) to do drawings based on them. i've had them leaned up against the wall on top of a little cabinet in my little make-shift studio for weeks and weeks. the more i looked at them, i began to realize what a powerful thing they are and how beautifully they compliment my larger body of work by just having them. but a few of them asked for a bit of attention- a bit of ink or string or tape or glitter or paint. i love each and every one of them. and they are still leaning against the wall in my studio keeping me company.
