In Memory of You
"In Memory of You" was inspired by a whimsical experience I had in a large field of sunflowers, on the way home from a celebration of my friend's life. This piece was created with gel printed papers, hand cut, and layered together through weaving and relief sculpture. The base, frame, and sunflower centers are constructed of reclaimed paper and cardboard. All cardboard is pre-sealed and professional-grade acrylic paints were used in the printing and painting processes.

What is the inspiration behind your piece?
Similar to Alice's experience in the flower garden, I had a whimsical and inspirational experience surrounded by a large field of sunflowers. I was on the way home from my friend's celebration of life when I stopped at a roadside farm to talk with the flowers. The weather was stormy that day and the bright yellow of the sunflowers contrasted nicely with the moody sky. I took some photos which I then knew I wanted to re-create in mixed media.
