Artist's Statement
The content that I want to focus on during the process of making an art piece is the setting of the mood. I find that colors help me figure out what feeling the piece could obtain and possibly what story it might have.
In “Rustic Array”, it is mainly in a warm, terracotta color along with the light values on the flowers and the darks in the background. All together they create a sense of warmth and a homey atmosphere in a Western world.
