Damn my Disorganization
Unfortunately so far I am not finding the third drawing. That was the drawing that the Pump House did allow me to put in. The one gallery worker really liked it, and fought for me to get it in. They allowed it because it wasn't frontal nudity. It may be worth noting that there was a piece exhibited by one of the high school students of Adolf Hitler's head transposed onto a nude nippleless female body. If I find the drawing I will put it here.

Le Chat Noir
The Great in fancy tights. I tried to get this into my first at exhibit at the Pump House. I was rather frustrated. I had informed them of my intent to put it in, but they said because of the high school exhibit also going on it got the ax. Part of the frustration was I had done this goofy thing where I was sandwhiching them between glass. I think I was trying to save money as plexi is more expensive. The result was ridiculously heavy as they were quite large sheets of glass. It was also bad because when I was putting them together one sheet of glass broke while I was holding it. My hands were pretty badly cut up. I had to do the hands over the head thing to get the bleeding to stop. It was running down my arms. So anymore I never use regular glass for big images. Plexi is safer and it is also much lighter.
Marla again
This is Marla. Tried to put this in my first exhibit too. See above. At the time there were lots of ads for Las Vegas the "What Happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" thing. I guess I am a stick in the mud, but this ad campaign always bothered me. If you loose all your money that won't just stay in Las Vegas. If you shoot up heroin in Vegas that will stick with you. If you get AIDS that will also be leaving Las Vegas with you.
