Passage of Time
Colored Pencils
Artist Statement
With this piece I wanted to create an analogy of the passing of time, specifically of birth, life, death, and the passing of one generation to the next. I used my grandmother’s and my cousin’s hands as subjects, which are a personal testament to the passing along of knowledge and responsibility that occurs when generations within a family come and go.
Using colored pencil, I layered values in rich color. I had never worked on black Bristol board before, so in a way I had to my usual methods of working within a specific color palette. This actually helped me because at the time I was very timid with applying rich color, but with the new background I was able to create the ranges of value that I wanted.
