Comments: The Cheshire Cat as the avatar for Mischief, based on Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Begun in November 2002 and completed in January 2003, this is my most ambitious painting to date. It was featured in the winter 2003 Honors Exhibition at the Allen Priebe Gallery at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, winning the "Chancellor's Purchase Award for 2-D Design." From February 2003-March 2004 it hung in Reeve Memorial Union at the university. This is by far the piece I am most proud of out of anything I've done, and I consider this to be one of my greatest accomplishments ever.
