Bridgewater Resident's Luck Almost Runs Out
BRHS graduate Michelle Matson is in the bottom with her art this week.

After weeks of at least having an appreciated piece, former Bridgewater resident Michelle Matson was on the brink of elimination when her street art failed to capture the judges' attentions on Wednesday
This week's challenge was to do street art on walls in Brooklyn, and contestants were paired up to create the pieces. The winning pair would split $30,000 for the prize.
Matson was paired with contestant Lola, and the two set about creating a party scene that they called "perverse," with sexually active creatures and stickers of bottles and cigarette buttes that could be taken off the wall and placed anywhere. The two enjoyed the mischevious nature of their piece, as they tried to make it appear that viewers were looking through the windows of the wall to a scene inside.

The title of the piece was "The New Neighbors Seem Nice (I Wonder When They'll Invite Us Over)."
"Working with Lola on this challenge is really fun," Matson said. "She's mischevious and that makes me feel like I can get away with anything."

But the two could not make their piece work and they were in the bottom, as the judges called their work more of a caricature than a representation of being a voyeur. Judges called it gimmicky, and silly canned surrealism.
In the end, both Matson and her partner remain in the competition, and we'll see where the next challenge takes them.
The show airs at 9 p.m. Wednesdays on Bravo. The next episode will air Nov. 30.
