2 Banners that I painted back in 2007 and 2008

This was outside the Staten Island armory on the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing (Auguat 6, 2007). The banner was about 20 feet long, and created with paint and canvas that we had salvaged. It reads "Nukes Off the Table".



This was created in the spring of 2008, using the same paint and same roll of canvas. Boy are we thrifty. Our Food Not Bombs project lasted from Thanksgiving of 2007 until April of 2008, every Wednesday in front of Staten Island Borough Hall. We fed people for free with food we had salvaged, because me and my friends are very fond of salvaging things. Eventually we had to salvage our free time, because there were only 3 of us running the whole thing and it took a lot of work to maintain.

My Adventures with Mr. Scarrimoncci

This is what I did to the Massive Creature collage packet.













I really did wake up late for class today. I decided to work on the packet so the day would not be a total waste. I have been super meticulous working on my design project, which is simple black and white, no drawing, only geometric shapes. This is...the total opposite.

My housemate has created several small homemade books out of fabric, and I used to create comics, collages, and zines when I was little, out of composition notebook paper. I also had in mind my MSPaint comix (being deliberately primitive) and my cut-up project. Finally, I had read Art Out of Time some months ago, and my favorite comic out of the bunch was Jack Mendelsohn's "A Visit to the Circus", from his Sunday comic, Jacky's Diary.

The covers are Entenmann's cake boxes.

Scrabble and Pacifism

This was drawn while he was taking a long time during a Scrabble match.

Same dude. I showed it to him and he seemed to think the guy was holding a knife at first. The little boy with the glasses is supposed to me. I actually quite like how it came out, and I've been reusing that nose shape for some other self-portraits I've done.
