My 3D Art Project: "Barbed Wire".
A good piece of art really gets me going. Staring at what seems like an endless collection of good art to me, can be compared to a high that a junkie gets off his or her drugs. That was a terrible, terrible analogy, but you get my point. Art puts me in a whole different universe. And I like it there.
Lately, 3D art is my main squeeze. I will always, always appreciate a painting and a drawing that looks like it was effortlessly done, but 3D art completely fascinates me. I mean, I am a clothing designer, so it kind of makes sense. So, being my artsy little self and always looking for a new creative outlet, I decided to put the fabric down for a day and take on a new project. I bought some super sturdy constructive paper (in "precious metals" coloring, complete with shimmer finishes and all), parked myself on my bedroom floor, turned on some Pete Yorn, and set my mind free.
With a stack of paper before me, a pair of scissors accompanied by a bottle of quick-dry glue, I must say, I'm impressed with my outcome. It was so relaxing, creating my own little puzzle. I sat there for a good hour and a half, sipping on sweet tea and listening to Pete Yorn, letting all of my creativity out on these little stripes of paper.
This little work of art is placed perfect under the drawing my good friend and feature artist of Prim Suspect, Chris Raimo did for me. Looks like I've created a little "art wall" that I need to fill up! Check out the image above, and let me know what you think!
I'm going to continue this little project, and see where it goes. Who knows, maybe I'll open up my own Etsy shop and roll in the dough!
