An Ethereal Existence
I typically gain inspiration from talking with a client and viewing other elements within the room where my piece will hang. But this project was unique.
But for this commission, I was presented with a completely empty room, a mood board, and the client’s wish for me to create my idea of ‘snowy mountains’. Oh my! I walked away from our initial meeting knowing this project was going to unique. You see… when you make a piece for inventory, you have complete creative freedom. And when you make a commission, at least for me as a past interior designer, the room speaks to me, and I immediately start to see something develop for the space. This commission provided a completely different creative experience. Using layers of soft colors, and a mix of crimped and flat paper created mountains reflecting a sunset on a gusty day – framed with two layers of dark swirls.
