Cut and Paste "Selfietoon"

"I don't want to be a cartoon in a cartoon graveyard" Paul Simon.


 Dot screens road and bubble thoughts ... one might think I was trying to be a poet but I'm talking about the "selfietoon" of myself on Telegraph Avenue early 1970s, Berkeley, California.







The micro second interval between frames is when the second drop of dog pee hit my art while I was making a rare sale to Carl Sagan's assistant. Instant thoughts of killing the poor dog appeared as a headline in the Berkeley Barb. The dot screens and self cartooning send me back to the actual split second. 






Silk screen passions and negative flip-flop double-trucks.
I still have the acetate positives for this photo sensitive emulsion silk screen print.
I  have the a double sadness.

Press type letter and dated betrayals. 






Big shot ... the process of enlarging a photo to poster size






Continuous yardage hand printed silk fabric photographed, screened and printed on and an offset Webb press.
