How to Destroy Angles

With the upcoming sebastepol center for the arts show in january, I had thought of creating a very very experimental piece built around the phrase "How to Destroy Angles" for which I had titled it. I wanted to do something different from what I have been up to, and since most of my focus was on the Novel I'm writing, I figured now was as good a' time as any to go for it. So here it is. While definitely a mess, and also whats come to be par for the course terribly photo'd, there is some elements I like. And some i REALLY do not, namely the acrylic paint, which I fucking loathe with a passion. How anyone works with that crap is beyond me, it's only redeeming quality being it dries fast. Of course now that I've said that, I'll probably do a ton more of them!

anyway, its 40"x30" and its alkyd, acrylic, nail polish, indian ink, pen and ink, sharpie(Oh yeah) and photo collage. It isn't done, and once again photo'd just AWFULLY by yours truly, but you get the idea. What is hard to see here is the blue lines done in the background, which I actually like and may incorporate into some more things. The How to Destroy Angles motif ha sme inspired for some other off the wall things(think x-rays, lino block prints in an art book)
