Self Portait in Thought. During the period in which I did not have access to a print studio, I experimented with digital prints. This series layers a line drawing of myself deep in thought, which was based on a photograph of my walking through the house after I first inherited it, when I felt overwhelmed with the task ahead and unsure of what to do. This figure pops up all in each print, similar to Waldo from the “Where’s Waldo” children’s book. The figure examines the house from multiple angles, inside and outside. She contemplates my grandparents’ photographs. She hovers over my great-grandmother’s book, on a palimpsest page with my great-great-grandfather’s resolution covered by her great-grandmother’s recipe for fruitcake. These prints all address my consideration of aspects of my Southern heritage, with a view to changing what needs to be changed, while preserving the positive human aspects of that fraught time.
