Sustained Investigation #14

Christmas Eve

18" x 18"

Canvas, acrylic, black paintmarker

The main idea that guided this piece was to show using real pictures, what me and my family do on Christmas eve and how my family has grown.

This was made on canvas using acrylic paint to make all the colors and a black paint marker to outline them all.

I went through a few different processes making this. I had to make two different grids with different measurements to sketch out the pictures and to overlap them. I also had to go through a lot of mixing paints to get colors to match the original pictures closely.
