I made a mixed media project. I chose to do this because I wanted to be able to express myself in a new way. For the background of this project I have ripped sheet music of my favorite song to play on piano, "The Meadow." I painted on top of that with peach, yellow, and purple. I used permanent marker as an outline for the female. I then put feathers on her wings with the matte medium. I painted her in and then went over her with the medium as well to even out the painting. I then stitched around the whole canvas as well as some designs in the middle of the canvas. I added the lace and the glitter last, again a matte medium to finish it off.
To me, this project is me expressing something that I want to happen. The girl represents me. The wings represent finally being able to fly, or as if I finally made it onto a stage. I feel that this project is me letting go and finally making it in the world with my music. |
