OCD Drawings

Picture
This series was about embracing my type A tendencies to an extreme to see how far I can push myself.  By indulging my natural impulses instead of fighting them the resulting work becomes a physical record of my obsessive temperament.  These pieces also address the concept of "research for research's sake", and doing something because one can rather than because one should.
