Miss August
 
1999 - Mixed Media

Today, this would easily be done with Photoshop, and then printed onto canvas. You can easily imagine a sub-genre of fashion or (dare I day it?) celebrity photography that aims for this wierd fusion of photography with pop and abstract art.

As such, this was a fairly solid achievement in bringing those styles together. I can't say if it's good enough to cover up the fact that I didn't have any real talent; that's something I'll have to leave to my official biographers, the supermarket tabloids, and Karl Rove.

Which raises the question: if I ever ran for public office, would these portraits get splattered across the evening news? Can you imagine the scandal? "My cat can paint better than this - film at 11." Good thing I'm running a secret website; if the GOP slime machine ever found out, I'd be in trouble.

Can I hang out with Puff Daddy now? Where's my bling-bling?
