Back to school flag

Description

Back to School Flag presents a bold red-and-white flag layered over colorful retail advertisements and back-to-school messaging. Fragments of sale signs, school supplies, and “Teachers Appreciation” text create a playful collage that reflects the energy and commercial rush of a new school year. Its handmade composition brings texture, contrast, and a touch of visual wit to a classroom, office, or creative space.

Artist

I was born in Chicago, and that influenced my art. I'm a self-taught artist. Whatever I learned came from looking at pictures at the Art Institute. Besides Oregon, I've been influenced by Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, and T.S. Eliot. My work is about complexity in our government.
