Into the Woods

mixed media (bed sheet, scrap wood, clothing patterns, photo transfer)

This painting was also done on a bed sheet stretched over scrap wood. It evokes the feeling of being lost in the woods through the line usage, and accentuated through the white tree shapes. The line structure comes from a child’s clothing pattern from the 1970s. The teal accents add structural lines, contrasting the forest and a manmade environment. It also includes a photo transfer of two children sleeping in a pile of leaves from the children’s story “Babes in the Wood”.
