Proposal 8

Medium: Acrylic Paint

Sizes per piece: at least 12” x 6” x 12”

Number of pieces: at least 4

• Concept: I want to pour out acrylic paint in sheets to dry on plastics. I will then take those sheets of acrylic paint and shape them into hollow or dense forms. Pieces of canvas will be used to bridge space and continue the conversation of painting. I want to explore the nature of paint and its fragility of color and the interaction colors.
