After the Storm
57"x39" I used wood that had been collected after Hurricane Matthew for this project, and originally wanted to make a piece about the destruction. That did not last, however, as I becan to draw on a panel one day and fond that I much liked the idea of creating a mutliple panel piece which created a landscape of sorts. Aside from the wood, this piece was created with acrylic paint, black ink, yarn, soft pastel mixed with canola oil, cardboard, and cut paper. I like to create small lines with ink, and found that it related well with the wood grain that was already in the piece naturally. As I moved along, I began to experiment with differnt layering of the wood objects and used white paint to bring out other marks that I had made. I also began to see what I could do with the overall shape of the surface, which I decided needed to escape fromt he typical rectangular place. different shapes of wood and string and cardboard helpd to make this happen.
