Paper Tiger

Paper Tiger

THIS PIECE IS CURRENTLY IN EXHIBITION IN LOS ANGELES.

I wanted to stretch myself with this piece. Ive used some different techniques and medium in the background. Ive also started to add more free text, poetry and prose. I love her hair, its a real statement. Paper Tiger is a Chinese phrase (zhǐ lǎohǔ - 纸老虎) meaning something that seems as threatening as a tiger, but is really quite innocent.
