This small silk screened portrait is created on hand painted and hand stained paper, and includes a final layer of painted bronze brushwork. It is part of an edition of 75, though each print varies slightly because of it�s delicate handmade layers.
The print represents a stage in the evolution of a mural painted in Braddock Pennsylvania, of a young woman named Ashley.
In the spring of 2008, working in collaboration with the collective Transformazium, I participated in a project called �Points of Interest.� This, Transformazium�s first project in Braddock, was aimed at pairing local youth with working artists to create artworks that would be energizing and fortifying for folks in the town of Braddock.
