Final Piece

For our final piece, we were able to choose anything we wanted- photos we had taken, or our own composition.  I took photos and mixed them together to make my own composition.  It was difficult to get a picture of this, since the light kept reflecting off the black paint.

Raising Awareness

Our project in which we picked out a topic that we wanted to bring awareness to, and made posters for the event that would bring awareness: a march to Monroe Park and the Compass.

photo compositions

These are all for our new massive project in which we work on a painting on masonite, any size from 4'x2' and up.  I'm working on a 4'x3' masonite piece and it's the biggest I've ever worked and I'm really excited about it! So here are some photos I took to get inspiration for a composition:

Monochromatic Color

Experiments!

Experiment with paint, gesso, metallic markers, and a transfer.

I wanted to do something with a wood grain, but the wood I purchased didn't have a defined grain to it so I couldn't use it like I wanted to.  I'm still not quite sure if this piece is finished or if I'm happy with it; I'll probably fix it up and repost a picture of it.

Bunnies!
