A wide, panoramic artwork featuring a collage of various elements: two pairs of hands in different styles, a large black spiral with a rough sketch of an eye at its center, a silhouette of a humanoid figure with a shadow, a small brown figure with a white outline, and a large brown letter 'Y' with a black 'X' at the intersection. The background is white with faint, cursive handwriting scattered throughout.
Illustration of a pale figure with red spots and a striped staff against a dark, textured background.
A stylized print featuring a tree with a leafy canopy depicted as a single maple leaf, set against a blue background. The trunk of the tree is labeled with the word "TREE" and a line pointing to the ground is labeled "LINE." Near the base of the trunk, a circle contains the word "ME." The artwork is bordered by a wide white margin with numbering and a signature at the bottom.
A minimalist black and white line drawing of an abstract figure resembling a gingerbread man with a simple face and no distinct features, centered on a white background with the artist's signature and edition number at the bottom.
A print featuring two panels with sketched illustrations of birds and insects. The left panel has colorful drawings of a dragonfly, a butterfly, and a red insect, all in flight above a plant. The right panel shows a detailed black and white sketch of a large bird with outstretched wings, possibly a mythical creature, resembling a griffin. The artist's signature is visible at the bottom right.
A textured gray paper with a faint outline of a traditional light bulb embossed in the center.
A high-contrast black and white artwork depicting a revolver pointed directly at the viewer, with the barrel centered and in focus. The image is signed and dated in the lower right corner.
A film strip showing two separate images: the top frame captures a young child in a patterned dress sitting in a chair, while the bottom frame features a close-up of an elderly person's profile with a patterned texture overlaying the image.
Close-up of a serene Buddha face made with a halftone dot pattern.
A digitally manipulated artwork featuring two images of a guitar with a colorful, abstract design against a textured grey background. The top guitar has a more vibrant and varied color palette, while the bottom guitar has a repeated pattern with darker tones. Both are set on a white border with a signature in orange at the bottom right corner.
