Metal Tooling

Metal, 2018

Kylie Schmitt “Love”

12x18, sharpies, lined paper, metal, 2018

I really liked writing love in cursive and so I made the love the biggest and made it in bubble letters. What I started with was the sign that said live laugh and love and made it into my own thing. Then I made the love the biggest and then I added laugh, live, and peace in cursive to make it not look so plane. I was thinking on what else I should add to make it not all the same and so I just added hears around the letters. What I want you guys to know is that I started with the word love and made everything else up as I went. If I could change one thing in my art work I would try to change the live, laugh and peace I would make bigger. What I love about the artwork is that the background makes the metal stand out.

Kylie Schmitt “pineapple”

8 x 10, Photoshop, 2018

There is a saying on it and it is “ Be a pineapple, stand tall, wear a crown, and be sweet on the inside. And there is a pineapple on it. I wanted to do something with a pineapple because when my uncle died that was the word if we needed a break from people at the funeral. The first thing I thought of was that saying. I want you guys to see that you don’t have to be like others to be yourself. If I started over I would try to change the way I arranged everything because I think that it would be better. What I love about it is that the pineapple is big in the middle of the photo.
