Today, I experimented more with photocopying and scanning with different types of paper. I also developed an interest in masking tape and the effect it had on images once they were printed onto it. Using different papers on top of others I was able to see the difference in quality, and could see how the images produced different outcomes on the same work

I began to use Mary as a motif within my work to juxtapose my other subjects matter like alcohol and nicotine, as both have been big parts of my upbringing. I enjoyed how this came out, primarily because of how her image started to rub off of the masking tape the more I moved and played with it.
