This piece is part of my latest body of work, and the first one that will be shown and for sale. It’s part of a series using a 3-part process. Each of the works begin as oil paintings, before being photographed, and then finally screen printed onto either belgian linen or silk.

Up for auction is 1 of the 5 in this collection of prints, each of which have something unique to them. They’re all different compositionally, and are also printed on different tones of linen.

The Only Thing I Want Burning Are My Loins  is free-standing, meant to be freely hung on a wall, mounted on a rod, or framed.

The winning bidder can select which edition they would like.
