buying children is still i#23F8

This is from a series I did about tagging. I spread about 2000 of these personalized "tags" throughout Reno. Each had an individual message on it; in this case it said "buying children is still not legal". The image in the background is a wheat paste I did on the back of a funky gallery. The same day, while the gallery was hanging a painting I made, I told them that someone had done something to their wall. They marched outside, had a look and couldn't decide if it was graffiti or a decotage (the g is silent)? From then on, whenever I was hassled for wheat pasting I would explain how I was decotaging and the person would walk away thinking they had learned something about art.

Nearing the end of a new painting at Art Dogs and Grace in Reno. As we painted this I took photos and created a timelapse. If I can figure out a way I will post a Quick Time of the animation for you finger clackers.

Tower of Bagelon

Here's the latest installation. Draped somewhere in downtown Reno a weeks worth of dumpstered bagels were dropped from the 5th floor of a parking garage until a modern day Tower of Bagel was created. We thought we could somehow outdue history yet just like in Biblical times our tower was scattered to every corner of the earth to rot and compost with the vermin and the artists.
