One could make the argument, in fact, that Sherman is an actress, as she plays the role of a different character in all of her photos. She began attending college in 1972 in the visual arts program, where she began painting. She found herself frustrated by the limits of the medium, and began dabbling in photography instead. While in college, she had also begun to experiment with what would later be one of the biggest features of her work—dressing as different characters created from clothing from a thrift store.  Her works have a very wide range in focus, from the variety of people you may find on public transport to imitations of historical paintings to clowns.

I have been caught up in my own studies, too focused on spellcrafting to practice my skills with the camera. Had I thought of it, perhaps I could have rigged it to capture an image of myself summoning a great beast. Much to keep in mind for the future. Only recently have I captured the forms of workers, although as my old master once said, it is always better late than never. Ashley Dunn, an employee at the Lebanon Walmart, has been working here for the last 2 years. Outside of work, she likes to listen to Archspire.
