my self-portrait looks like i did it in like 15 minutes but it took over 2 hours.
its a huge symbol from like women's room signs and insidei s typed like 98378387387438 (literally) words... descriptive words... and then i spray painted around it, cut out the shape (so theres a trace of spray paint), made the paint DRIP (yah, after i cut it out), outlined the figure so you can tell what it is and then did junk to the words (like circled, x'ed out, striked, underlined, highlighted)... put it on large hot pint posterboard with a fucked up spray painted stencil a in white (the other spraypaint was turqoise) and then i put the whole thing on a sheet of recyleable paper that was obviously ripped out from a pad of paper
its so rediculous
it looks like i tried to hard
ps, i did
but i meaan, i didn't try to hard like look-at-me... i tried to hard on the project and i spent to much time on it and the effect is that it became over-manipulated
...i wish i had black poster paper...
OK, but, then... I made a masterpiece.
If you ever come over my house, you probablly have noticed that I write on my mirrors with expo markers and the like. I found a disgusting stick of deoderant (!!! i use clear, not gross white, sorry) and drew a quick portrait on my mirror with it.... and then took a polaroid. and i love it. the polaroid i mean. it's perfect because it is so BAD that it's good. its imperfections have perfected it. check out my hip, or the bright flash. the reflection og the sink and the view out the door. my teethbrooshes and fucked up what-have-you. i am now happy and might turn this in instead. by instead i mean in addition.
and i don't have access to my scanner so i photoed it (it= polaroid) with my digicam, oh gosh. life is incredible and i love you.
