S O L E I L  (2)

Click on arrow for accompanying music
by Eleni Karaindrou

S O L E I L (2)
("S U N" in French)
is a version of the first one "S O L E I L" .
I kept the colors more simple, but the texture is heaver.

"Soleil (2)" is part of my exhibit "As the World Turns"
at the Osher Institute (University of Delaware)
September 6-16, 2011

It also will be part of my art workshop October 22, 2011
for the DFVA Kaleidoscope for High School Students,
which will be held at Delaware College of Art and Design.


Hover over the painting with the quick- zoom feature
to see all the details and textures in this small (12x12 inches) box canvas!
It's considered a "collage" painting,
because there's sheet music and news paper incorporated in the sun beams.
I used crushed egg shells in the sun.
For the background I used modeling paste,
in which I printed all kind of shapes, when it was still wet .
