RE: Paintings on Handmade Paper
I don't know why you haven't tried making your own paper. But don't say I didn't warn you :)
Thinking back, the inspiration for these paintings was a comic called Arriba! The Parkdale Wrestler, by Stacey Case and various artists. Couldn't find anything about it online. Got the copy tucked away somewheres... In the meantime here's one of the Parkdale Wrestler Super 8 movies.
Super 8—nice. Okay, well this explains a lot. I was thinking you might have been into pro wrestling or boxing, and I guess you may be, given you've got the comic book. It's fascinating what we all end up using as inspiration for the things we create.
Well, I definitely remember the days of Hulkamania... And Andy Kaufman.
The sweet science has always had an appeal to me, but I never followed it religiously.
