VROOM

In the Spring of 2011, I took Advanced Watercolor and had to come up with a proposal for the class. This proposal was what we were going to work on for the entire semester. I wanted to challenge myself and decided to focus on reflections. I wanted to study how objects are distorted in reflections and decided on using reflections in vehicles. Thus my proposal grew into showing how a person and their vehicle "go" together. To make each piece conceptually successful, I used reflections on the vehicle itself, background, certain color choices, and how the vehicle was oriented in space to show how the certain person and car/truck "matched." I completed 6 pieces, and here they are with the name of each owner:

 Lisa

 Brad

 Javi

 Dennis

 Becky

Cerese

They are in order from which I completed first to last. All are painted with watercolor, 22"x30" on coldpress paper
