Lost and Found

Yesterday, I found my “doodle” from a few years back that was published in the Washington City Paper. The newspaper had asked locals to submit their found art. I submitted this attempt at a self-portrait and forgot about it. Months later my mom called me from San Francisco excited because a friend of hers had seen my painting in the paper. I remember running around D.C looking for a copy of the city paper and going through the paper page by page in search of my painting. When I found it on the last page it was really funny to see my picture next to a Viagra ad. One place I never thought I see my face.
