Post Collage Austin Years

Apparition of Miles
Prisma Colored Pencil
1998

After graduating with a Bachelors Degree in Art, I floundered a bit working as a secretary, accounting clerk and office manager before returned to collage for another degree.  During this time I went through some difficult experiences and as a result created a lot of very dark art that kind of reflected me trying to find myself. I also found out that Miles, one of my first loves, had died unexpectedly. Although we had been apart for quite a while, it effected me in a dark way. This, on top of my black mood, made for some great conceptual artwork. The following posts include some of my favorites from that time.
