Kelly Gaulrapp I chose to research the artist Scott Griesbach. He invents propagandistic intrigues with a familiar cast of characters. He uses digital images and juxtaposes those images with historical refrences such as Duchamp and his urinal, or Pollock and his paintings. Griesbach says of his work, "the work doesn't take a political stand. Rather it speaks to the course of social practice in the age of capitalism, advertising, and the co-opting of art and ideas by technology, the media, and the globalization of popular culture." He utilizes every opportunity that the digital age can give us to make art.

I really like Scott's work. I was drawn to his work because I thought his use of collage was strong and interesting to look at and think about. I like the humor found in his work, for one example, the juxtaposing of race horses and Pollock.

Kelly Gaulrapp I decided to recreate the nursery rhyme Little Bo Peep for this assignment. I chose to stick with black and white photograph backgrounds and make the characters of the story the focus. I brought in different patterns of fabrics to create the sheep and modernize the story. Little Bo is also in color.

Kelly Gaulrapp For my self portrait I chose a black and white photograph of me to use. I incorporated other pictures that were basically the life that I have lived the past year. There are pictures of Spain from when I lived there and Portugal. There are also paterns and fabrics used to represent what I am working with in my current body of artwork.
