As for my portion of the showing, I have put seven of my collages up there (Infanticide, EXTERMINATIONTHRUPROCREATION, the Brutal Death art, CEREBRALCIRCUMCISIONINCISION, UC Daeefus, Do Cavemen Dream of Electric Sheep? and the Future is a Machine). With the exception of "the Future is a Machine" and the Brutal Death artwork, they are all for sale at negotiable prices. I put a lot of effort into mounting them in the most precarious fashions possible. I acquired various cutting boards, paintings, clipboards and planks, which I have painted over and glued my collages on top. Since the collages are themselves made precariously on the backs of cardboard boxes, getting oll of them to stay flat was a challenge, with any amount of glue. For the few that I couldn't get to stay flat, I utilized the help of a staplegun, so the collages are not all in mint form anymore, but I personally like the touch the staples add to them.

My First Art Show!
It's been a couple weeks since I last posted anything here. I'll try not to let that happen too much, so as not to let the blog stagnate. However, I do have a good reason for my absence and it is because I have been busy. "Busy with what?" you may ask. Well, I have been busy with many things, but in particular I have been getting ready for my first showing. That's right, a bunch of my collages are up on display for the internet free public to observe. They are up on display at a local restaurant called the Delta of Venus , which has always been supportive art and music in Davis. Along with my collages, there also collages by a couple artists from Santa Cruz, whose names I cannot remember, and another local collager named Pxl. They will be up for about a month, so if you are around Davis, California within the next month, I recommend you stop by the Delta and take a look and if you make it there in the morning, definitely order a breakfast there. I've found that the best cure for a hangover is vomiting, biking in the rain in a t-shirt and getting a Delta of Venus breakfast. It works everytime. We may also be hosting some sort of dance party near the end of the showing. I'll post more info on that, later, along with some pictures of the showing.
