Contrast Study
Contrast Study – Acrylic, june 2022 This piece reimagines the traditional ‘house, tree, animal’ assignment by focusing heavily on color theory. By placing opposing hues from the color wheel directly next to each other, it creates a powerful contrast.
Cardboard Study
Cardboard Study – Acrylic on cardboard, june 2022 This piece captures a portrait of my youngest child, painted on reclaimed cardboard. We tore away the top layer to selectively reveal the ridges and play with those textures.
