smear (2003)

 I have a strange thing about taking pictures of myself when I am in great emotional or physical pain. When I look back on them I think, "I'm so glad I'm not like that now!"

  This was taken one afternoon when I had a complete meltdown while expressing myself on huge newsprint with charcoal. After screaming and crying for a couple hours I went into the bathroom and took a picture.
