This was the piece that won for the short story "The Scream." I am super proud of it and i think it is quite adorable, not to toot my own horn. I used magazine clippings, lace, and string to create it. She is running from the beast btw. The demesions are 10 by 10.
This piece is one of my favorites. This is a continueation of my concentration that was demonstrated in my woman's suffrage peice. This piece focuses on westword expansion, the rise of the "cowboy", and settlement the rise of manufacturers in rural areas. I used liquitexed images, newprint/images, thread, and tissue paper.
This was the piece I entered into the SC art scholarship i want. This, to me, is the first piece for my concentration. I used liquitexed images, tissue paper, magazine print, thread, hook and eyes, lace to create it.
This piece was created from layering thread, newsprint, spraypainted paper, and tissue paper as the background. I India inked the drawing on the background. I've never used India ink beforeand I think it turned out to be pretty successful.
This is created from oil pastel and foam board. There are 5 different layers. Layer one (bottom right square), layer two (bottom left square), layer three (top left), layer four (top right), and layer 5 (frame). Each layer has its according amount of foam board making a 3D piece. I really loved doing this piece. The funny part about this is that I created the 4 window squares and originally had no intention of making the frame. But when I had finished them I didn't want to stop with the design and I thought it was just "missing something". So, I made the boarder and had a wonderful time trying to figure out how it would extend if they were all touching.
These are characters from my imagination that I have wanted to do in a piece for ages. They are made from found paper and found images. I was going for more earthy tones and "flower power".
