Komorebi Fairies
Artisitic Statement
My art piece, Komorebi Fairies, is a mixed media piece showcasing a tree with sunlight rays spilling through the branches. In the rays, there are little fairies and pieces out of a storybook. The main element seen in the artwork is the use of pieces of paper that make a mosaic. My artwork is made from paint, color pencil, newspaper, chalk, paper, marker, and pencil shavings, as well as a gloss Mod Podge to hold everything down. I used a stencil print for the leaves and used my fingers to spread the yellow color of the sunbeams. The paper is torn-up newspaper stuff. What inspired my artwork overall was the Japanese word for komorebi, which refers to the phenomenon of light filtering through the trees from sunlight.
Stars Hollow
My art piece, Stars Hollow, is an acrylic paint piece on a medium pumpkin showcasing a small town called Stars Hollow from the 2000s tv show Gilmore Girls. It shows a small town square as well as a diner. The main element seen in the artwork is the use of dark green colors in the nature. My artwork is made from acrylic paint. What inspired my artwork overall was the tv show and how nostalgic and lively the whole vibe of the show is. It's one of my favorite shows, and me and my mom relate to the main characters who are mother and daughter (Rory and Lorelai) and making this town on the pumpkin reminds me of the first fall that I ever watched the show.
