Hansel & Gretel

This quick challenge was the most difficult for me so far because it was open ended and vague in concept. I decided to create trails with various materials like ink, paint, fruits, nails, drawings, and collected objects because I love dripping techniques and compositions that are heavy in a concentrated area. While I liked the concept of collecting various items from people around me, I felt that I didn't have enough control over the composition. I loved the berries on paper for the rich color, texture, density, and the odd visual presence of food suspended in time without decay. 

Blueberries pulled across paper to create a trail


A raspberry pulled across paper to create a trail


A strawberry pulled across paper to create a trail


Trails of ink


Trails of paint across graphics


Bee trail


Trail of nails


Trail of items from the people I run into everyday
