There has been no posts for a while as I have been busy juggling classes, work, and my art portfolio. Not to fear though, as I am documenting the completion date of everything along with pictures so that I may upload them here eventually.
I was recently feeling a need to create some mixed media art. The first attempt was going to be of a baby elephant but unfortunately was not going in the right direction....so I completely scratched it off. I then created a small flower painting and for my third attempt I just went over the elephant one and created a second flower painting.... wow, super wordy.
This is my fist completed mixed media art. I would like to clear up something: in my opinion mixed media art is usually something that pops out... it has some 3D quality to it. Whereas mixed media painting is just a 2D work that involves multiple types of paints. Although this painting is not as "3D" as I would like for it to be, I would still consider it a mixed media artwork as it has some 3D objects (buttons, shells, etc.).
This is part of the "Expressive Flower Series" and I am actually thinking about exhibiting my Expressive Flower Series during this coming summer. It all depends on whether or not I am able to complete an artist statement for just this series on time or not...
