Making Marks




Off paper

One Mark Against Many
"Loyalty"

The acting mark in this video is the good energy a friend of mine brought into my house a few nights ago. The mark is an emotion that spreads throughout the house causing others and the dog in the video to develop more marks of good energy and good times. 




A Million Marks
"Barnacles"
The barnacles and oysters being scraped off the seawalls and pilings by the shovel act as the mark in this video. The mark is caused by deduction. When these barnacles are released in the water thousands of pieces are dropped in the water. The mark in return chums the fish and brings them in the area.


On paper

Movement as Mark
"Highfive"
Oil Charcoal and Coffee on paper



A Million Marks 
"Untitled"
Chalk and charcoal on paper

I achieved 30,000 marks in this piece with charcoal and chalk.
