Painting My Right Eye
Hi everyone!! I made this piece on a flat canvas board. I did a few layers of paper mache to create the texture and raise the eyeball. I used oil pastels for the bulk of the painting. The iris is made out of a broken CD. When learning how to burn CDs for my band I had a few that didnt end up being usable or rewritable, so I used them as paint palettes. I soaked those in hot water and then cut them up to create the "tiles." The brown piece is there intentionally
This piece was SO much fun to create. I tried out some new things and the end result is so bright im very happy with how it came out :)
