Hey dude cool art! I like how you explain your intentions with the pieces. It helps me see (as a newbie art appreciator) what you were going for and to see into the mind of an artist. Your explanation of the artwork was exquisite as well.
Oh and thats so cool the squirrel! I want to feed it now. lol
I could have made this one into three or four posts. I have a difficult time condensing and not overexplaining things. So, i am glad you appreciated the explanations and description of the process. The art was one topic, the framing was another, and the backstory was a thing of it's own... along with my pet wild squirrel. hahha
I took art past the normal curriculum in school to the point they had to create new classes for me. However, i didn't pay much attention to the matting and mounting aspects. I learned custom framing on the job. The thing i learned is that nobody knows much about frames. So, i thought it would be cool to use my deconstruction as a demonstration to help inform.
In my mind the main point of the artwork was to convey the feminine delicate nature of the woman but translate the invisible silent strength and power of how she carried herself. Thanks for taking the time to read this novel and comment! I appreciate your time and interest!
It was definitely a reader, but you kept it interesting. I thought it was awesome that you showed your subject the art of her. I bet she loved that. You did a great job explaining the process of framing too.
