Chris Eisgruber, the new provost, before having a faculty lunch with

and this picture that I took of the raw materials
../../../Sabbat/2004/05.04-06.04LunchesFacultyArt//IMG_1175
that made many of the paintings. At home that evening, I did a practice
../../../Sabbat/2004/05.04-06.04LunchesFacultyArt//IMG_1176
self profile and kept taking self portraits

at least partially opened.
