Ray Johnson influence

 I haven't bee spending a lot of time in the studio lately, as I have been focusing my efforts on my conference paper for the Southern Humanities Conference. The paper is entitled, "Ray Johnson as the embodiment of stream of consciousness". I think this quick "sketch" was influenced by Johnson's work. BTW, the upper panel is not a pornographic image, as it might appear. It's a cut piece from a Ben-Day dot photo of JFK. Last night, whilst laying in bed, I thought it might be an interesting nod to Ray Johnson, if I stamped this piece with "Collage by Ray Johnson", as he often did (now that would be funny).


This collage was actually created by Ray Johnson
