Rum Punch

Rum Punch is a mixed media piece. The floral is based on found 70’s wallpaper which I redesigned as a black and white fabric. The custom made fabric is then stretched to a panel and I used acrylic spray paint to create the gradient. The tropical drink is collaged onto the background. It is painted with acrylic on mylar to complete the composition. This piece plays with scale (Can you imagine a 2 foot tall cocktail?!?) I am also exploring in this piece how color can create a mood or a vibe.
