Home

Mixed Media, my new found love and obsession. I call this project "Home." I got the inspiration from the song home by Edward Sharps & the Magnetic Zeros. "Home, Let me come home. Home is wherever I'm with you." This is a cardboard cutout of a house that I collaged and designed. I really enjoyed this project, it help me to realize my style of art I want to work with ! I got the pictures from antique stores around the Ann Arbor area, also I have been collecting buttons and keys over the summer so I incorporated the objects into my house. The outside of the house has a antique, calm safe feeling. I painted the roof a dark brown and the house a lighter brown. The inside of the house is a pink purple color. I feel like it gives the house light and energy! I included old black and white postcard images, pictures of dolls, quote from my inspirational song, and random words.
