Found in Nature

Demi Bernard

Artist Statement: Found in Nature was based off a chuck of tree bark I had found along with wild purple flower. Using the object directly out of nature was very striking seen I could engage directly with the texture and precise positioning. A kew aspect about this piece was that it was done five colored pencils (black, white, blue, red, and yellow). It was a time consuming project but ultimate extremely rewarding to have colors blossom to after layers of over colors to produce new unique shades.

Medium Statement: colored pencils on mixed media paper
