This artwork was inspired by the idea of brainstorming. I prepared by sketching out on fabric my basic plan and working from there, adding on more and more layers. I wanted to focus on the explosion of thoughts from the brain as colors and flowers. This artwork should feel inspiring and exciting. I think that the ideas were communicated fairly well. The bright colors and dynamic form help to convey the mood of the piece. The contrast of lines and shapes helps to give the piece varying weight, and to draw the viewer’s eyes throughout the entirety of the artwork. My current plan for my concentration is to do a series of self-portraits in slightly unconventional media, and so far this piece fits with the theme.
