Analog self-portrait finished
So I'm editing this after the post date and am realizing there's no apple here. I just have done so many and I didn't really want one in this. I've done so many pieces like the right side of this one tho, with waves and an apple down low in them, that you know you can imagine it there. Let's just pretend it's dipped under a wave at the moment of this image. It's there, you just can't see it. :)
Vs. digital painting (which has an apple even though it's not in frame here)

Char + apple
3D piece today. I made this to submit for the Maryland Federation of Art’s juried exhibition “Eye Of The Beholder,” which requires that artworks be made from found objects.
Char—Depression Warrior 15-year Campaign Diary
(Media: kindling + partially consumed birch branch, acrylic)
Each twig was selected and intentionally burned and painted before insertion into drilled birch branch, also painted to resemble still-burning embers. Each twig memorializes a particular year from 2005–2021.
