This self-portrait silhouette is full of "found poetry." I rescued a severely damaged and abandoned book and upcycled it into fine artwork, selecting a word here and there and piecing them into unique, original poems and stories. Here are a few samples (but not all) of my poetry in this piece:
"one raindrop fell,
and then many,
a perfect circle expanded
perhaps a little breathless
you chose this moment
to kiss me"
"she licked
some rain
from her lips
in slow-motion arcs
a sudden thought
a kiss. a smile.
memory"
"just dance.
crazed like fire-flies.
it was like a vision
it made me feel
sexy as hell."
"I was deeply in love with
my own idea of love."
And, surrounded by my swirling breath in gold paint: "I imagine no more words were necessary"
I highly recommend viewing the image close-up (by click on it) to see the detail and discover more of the poetry in this mixed-media...
I am an artist, a mother, and an entrepreneur. I'm passionate about music and color and seek to convey the transformative power of music through my paintings. My artwork and tutorials have been regularly featured in Cloth Paper Scissors and Cloth Paper Scissors PAGES magazines. I am following my passions and creating art that I love for the sheer joy of it! I hope it resonates with you as well. Exciting news! My self-portrait, "Music Was My First Love" won the juried 2021 Billboard Contest sponsored by Fine Art America, and is featured on a giant billboard in Houston, Texas. If you see it, let me know. For a glimpse behind-the-scenes and to see more of my artwork, including my newest pieces, works in progress, tutorials and more,...
