This is a photo originally of the Parthenon in Nashville, TN, from a trip Rachel and I took in 2019. I’m hoping we can get back to Tennessee soon to see her family! Anyway, I like the green color in this distorted graphic. For whatever reason, the waviness and distortion of the image reminded me of a visual representation of radio static, hence the title.
More graphic art! I took this Wikimedia Commons image of Franz Kafka and played around with it. I like the spirals in the background, and the red hue was my favorite of the colors.
Here’s another graphic art piece I created on Canva. The original photo was taken in Philly in the spring of 2020 when the pandemic first hit. I distorted the image and shapes to turn it into a “Nightmare Alley.” I like how the image in the center almost looks like an alien spaceship or something you’d see in a science fiction movie.

Would you wipe the drool off my bruised mouth?
Would you carry me on the battlefield?
Would you feed me?
Would you listen to me talk of how I’ve wasted my life?
