Mixed Media

For Alexandra Davis’ ARTS 373 Mixed Media class, we were assigned with manipulating the form of a book in any way which we chose to create an artwork. The title of the book I found at Thrifty Shopper was ‘America is Not the Heart’. I found this compelling, wondering what ‘the Heart’ was. Though many arguments can be made for different answers, I personally wanted to illustrate nature as ‘the Heart’. I imagined a setting in my head, and made a rough sketch and a less rough sketch before diving into cutting up the book and adding watercolor.
