Dead Friends 9 by John Douglas

Synthetic polymer paint and newspaper collage on paper.
From a series called Dead Friends, about friends who have died from HIV/AIDS related illnesses.
John loved taking photographs. He was always running around with his camera up, his chinese workers’ cap on. He loved people and loved nothing more than to photograph people having fun. It seemed like his camera was a part of his face at times.
