Abstract April Day 17

Writer's picture: Destiny McCamantDestiny McCamant

For todays prompt, "Lighthouse", I had no inspiration. So what do you do when that happens? You go look for some. There are a few artist i look at for inspiration, when I am lacking. For today, I turned to Shawn Petite. She is a mixed media artist I found on youtube, and she is pretty awesome. You can check her out on her website, https://www.shawnpetite.com/. She does some amazing stuff. For this painting, I knew I wanted to use collage papers that had some type of maps and such, but other than that I wasn't sure. After looking at how Shawn did hers, i decided to do something similar. I did not have a lighthouse stencil like she used, so I found an image from unsplash.com that has tons of free to use images. After I found that, I knew where I wanted to go from there. This actually turned out way better than I first thought it would. And I am glad that I stuck it out, and came up with something.
