At RISD during wintersession I took a painting class called 'From Collection to Creation'. The class focused on drawing inspiration from our personal archives and collections to create a body of work. Here are a few examples from that class.

Self Portrait Series

A series of self portraits I did at RISD using experimental methods and materials. All range between 18"x24" to 40"x50".
A few portraits from this series are currently being exhibited and are for sale at Divinyl Revolution in Saratoga Springs, NY.
I also have some signed artist prints on sale here too!
