| This portrait combines the density and scale of each bar code to create a greater gradation from white to black. I increased the value range in this portrait by proportionally shrinking the bar codes from the previous halftone. I also created a bar code signature, in the bottom left corner, which I made with the ISBN number from the book that inspired me to create a bar code halftone, "Real World Halftone and Scanning." I sent a 60-inch poster of this one to Oprah in March 2001 and have gotten no response. |

I made another portrait of Oprah where I used the book covers, instead of the bar codes, from her book club.
