"DO IT YOURSELF" THRIFT STORE ART


Here's something I found at a thrift store years and years ago. It was just a head of a woman with an afro and a disembodied hand that seemed to be coming out of nowhere right in front of her face. Just a simple black and white drawing that seemed to serve no purpose but to be manipulated..so I took it home and altered it with some magic markers with the above result. Primitive, but it hangs in my house to this day.

Nice I used to get bad paintings at thrift stores and paint over them. I called it reclaiming art. I really like what you did with this, and I don't blame you for displaying that at all.
