FEATURED WEB PAGE: PAINTINGS ON PENNIES

In another form of art, this week's Featured Web Page is the work of Jacqueline Lou Skaggs, who has created some interesting paintings on U.S. one-cent coins. Check 'em out!

This small body of twelve works consist of images painted on found, discarded pennies and reflect a decision to move away from making "pictorial" images. A grand finale of sorts paying homage to the binding ideologies that define our family, religious, social and political worlds. Paid tribute no less on the face of discarded coins these iconic images transcend the coins value while defacing it.
