hope you guys enjoy it!!

This is an illustration by one of my favorite artists, Arthur Rackham. When I was in Midsummer Night's Dream a few years ago, the fairies had to hold up branches and cover themselves whenever they were supposed to be hidden onstage. For my fellow tree dancers, we had a mantra: "Be the bush"

I just realized I have a webcam! Also realized that I can use it to take pics (since I don't have a camera), so I can finally put up my collage:) The theme is activism: one side represents the peaceful protesters fighting for nature's rights, the other side is far more militant and I used images with a lot of black, white, and red. In the center, there is a burst of brilliant color, with a small platform and a picture of Pete Seeger performing back in the 60s, before he was blacklisted for antiwar lyrics.

Here are some sketches I did while we were planning out our Environmental design project.

The Wave- Paul Gauguin

 I went to the Paul Gauguin art exhibit when I was in Tahiti a few years ago. This was my favorite painting, however I really enjoyed many others. His work really reflected the culture of the south pacific islands. The colors and the way he depicted the people are very pretty. This is my favorite though because I love that he used the colors red and yellow in a wave.

paint.

I stumbled upon this painting through google images. It reminded me of our theme of seasons. I think the colors that were used are really interesting in addition to the shapes used to form the trees. It's really neat that a bunch of squiggle shapes and circles can come together and form the figure of a tree, and I like the way that the artist used circles on top of circles in different colors to make them stand out more.

Different Doors

I was looking at this and it made me think about how something so simple as a door can represent so many different things. Each door in this is completely different, and the design of it gives the viewer an idea of what lies behind that door, what type of room it is etc. Its just cool how just the color, or shape can give away so many other clues about something you can't see.
