This report outlines some of the questions, thoughts, and references I have recorded about the paintings made during my time at the University of Texas at Austin. Generally my work relies on a restricted palette of colors and direct mark making, built up in many layers of translucent egg tempera paint. Linked by personal narrative, the history of painting, and an obsession with science fiction, I strive to create a multivalent surface that opens up paintings long historic role and connects it with todays global culture of massive image-consumption.Advisors/Committee Members: Canright, Sarah (advisor), Smith, Michael (committee member).
