Portland artist and Peculiariumist Mike Wellins finds paintings in flea markets, thrift stores and yard sales and revitalizes them with new elements. The process is known as NERC (Non-elective Retroactive Collaboration).
The fun comes from finding something that is so boring that it isn’t even noticed and turning it into something that is strange, shocking or funny.
