Abby Sangiamo Drawings And Paintings [Paperback]

This book is a collection of all the artworks I made when I started teaching at MICA. Whenever I begin a series, I have a rough idea how the first piece will look, but none at all about the last years later down the road. When a series loses its will to accommodate new ideas, I give it up and move on. The frontal portrait series lasted through eight years and several hundred works until 1981, but a few years ago, inspired by tattoos as personal narrative, I breathed new life into some long-forgotten pieces from that series that struck me as needing and ready for dramatic change.
