3D piece out of sketchbook.
















to create this i used a canvas and using acrylic paint and using a straw to spread it into a tree shape. i then began to embroider leaves into the tree in different shades of green. However when i turned the canvas the other way around and held it up to the light i discovered it actually looked quite good the other way around, with one corner of the tree looking like actual leaves.
After a peer assessing with the class i think i may dirty the background of my canvas to make the tree stand out. I have also decided i will try to create 4 canvases, each for a different season, each in a different media.

  1. Erin, these pictures look great on the blogspot - could you zoom in and look at them / represent them for your pieces you have to develop?
