For my chronologies piece I chose to create a butterfly. Within my essay for seminar I discussed my discovery of family, life, and art. All of that would never have happened if it had not been for my aunt. In the essay, I state how she is everything to me and more, and that I am forever grateful for her existence.
Steps:
- I mapped out all of the possible ways I could create a butterfly
- I picked my idea
- i went to Mood Fabric Store
- Went through 8 different swatches ignorer to find the perfect color
- I finally went with the color code: black silk textured, cotton lilac, and sequenced sparkly black and silver lace, and black metal
- Each color had a significance behind it
- Black textured silk: for the hard color black that my aunt and i both wear daily, as well as a personality resemblance
- Cotton Lilac:
- I went back to my dorm and went back to my previous butterfly sketches
- Chose a different butterfly in the end
- I think that the shape that i finalized was more distinct, and resembled my aunt
