New submissions to the thesis/dissertation collections are added automatically as they are received from the Graduate School. Currently, the Graduate School deposits all theses and dissertations from a given semester after the official graduation date. This means that there may be up to a 4 month delay in the appearance of a given thesis/dissertation in DRUM.

    LIFE, NATURE AND PAINTING
    (2007-05-15) Gordon, Peter Andrew; Craig, Patrick; Art; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
    Perception of memory, the present and the future is continually shaped and reshaped by sporadic incidence. Arriving as lucky strikes, freak accidents, poor health, chance meetings, and epiphanies of the mind, unforeseen events interrupt and alter routines, making our lives unpredictable and open to blind circumstance. Inspired by patterns and anomalies in the natural environment, these eight thesis paintings merge variation with repetition. They reflect the notion of shifting expectations due to unexpected occurrences.
