The elements of these “computer paintings” are drawn from many sources; film stills and magazines, old furnishing catalogs and digital stock. Mainly, they are meant as humor and satire (though L.S.M.F.T. seems very sad to me) and they shamelessly exploit and lampoon the racial and sexual stereotypes ubiquitous in American culture once upon a time.
