The Joke: My Piece for Landfillart.org

http://www.gomezart.net.
Landfillart is an international effort encompassing 1,041 artist to claim a piece of rusted metal garbage and create fine art. After accepting Ken Marquis' invitation to participate (Ken is landfillart's mover and shaker), I received my my hubcap in the mail. The piece I eventually made combined my annual self l portrait (I start one on my birthday every year) and an interest in pre-cinema motion toys. It's officially called Found Portrait: The Artist at 59 but I call it The Joke.
