long girl 1

Girl No. 1
This was my first piece in my series of pattern girls. The ides for this one was to do a (sort of) monochromatic color scheme. Though I didn't fully follow these guidelines I set for myself, I like the way it all meshed together.

A preview of my new series!

Girl No. 2
Acrylic and Pattern 
2011

This series is based on the renderings on the envelopes of dress patterns. Each painting represents a different style from the 1950's. The brown pieces of paper are pieces of the vintage dress patterns collaged into the painting. This is the second of four pieces, two of which hung in my show last fall. Hopefully I will be able to post some higher quality photos soon!

New Art

I'm about to upload a few photos from my newest series. This series is based on 1950's dress patterns. Each painting is a rendering of an image from the envelope of the pattern. Collaged onto the piece is part of the actual pattern. This series is really exciting for me because it combines my love for fashion and my love for painting.
