Blue Lotus
This was the first in this series. I wanted to use my knowledge of faux techniques to create the background. Then I used stencils to create the raised golden lotus and other embellishments.
Marblelously Green
This was another faux marble background, this time in green. I used a different texture technique to create a bronze relief. Which made the filigree break in a way that I felt lends fragility to the piece.
Life is Golden
This piece was for my admiration for graffiti art. I wanted to create a broken brick wall effect and then added different graffiti elements.
Slow Reveal
In keeping with adding texture to the bordered series, I chose to use the technique of plastering cloth. I wanted to create the idea of revealing another member of the series.
Moment of Relaxation
I used this piece to create a beach scene. The texture of the waves and sand add immersion to the piece.
Clockwork Mechanism
The clock gears are revealed behind the messy black wall.
