I'm going to count this series "DRUGS" as a new media work, because while the portraits are of various media, the ingestion of various pharmaceutical compounds was a vital component of the artworks. Note that the medications are, for the most part, legal, which makes an important point. This is a process-mediated series that'll likely give you chills if you've ever dealt with anyone who has been on the "let's try a new medicine, alter dosage, and repeat" cycle that plagues modern psychiatry.
Here's what really happens when your brain is on drugs--provided, of course, that one is an artist.
2nd one is "bath salts." Disturbing, funny, awesome. :)
