#BitchSeries is a ten-piece abstract portrait project completed in collaboration with California-based artist Laura Johnston. It began in October 2015 as ten  skeleton paintings on paper, making the 2,600 -mile, cross-continent voyage several times until the pieces were deemed complete sometime in late April 2016.  The name #BitchSeries reflects a fun, off-the-cuff poem penned by Laura in the midst of the project; with each piece subsequently containing a line or two typed on the backside using a vintage Underwood Olivetti typewriter.

Other materials used in the project also include: acrylic ink, india ink, acrylic paint, walnut ink, watercolour, watercolour pencil, chalk pastel, graphite, ballpoint pen, Gellyroll pen, Gold Leaf & collage.
