The Felt series (1998-1999) emerged from a playful experimentation with materials and techniques of the Early Works. While exploring the use of found objects, the series demonstrates how a found objects' meaning is directly connected to its context.
 

The paintings depict fictional characters, plants, and animals in mythological environments. Many of them examine allegories of authority, authenticity, and play.

The Felts are the first experiment with a technique called trompe l’oeil, in which the illusion of painting and the physical, sculptural qualities begin to merge.
