The Earth and The Moon and Astroids...Oh my


This piece was done on a piece of wood, covered in textured paint (like for ceilings). Then I sketched out the general idea of what I was wanting to do (which evolved daily, with the help of Mr. Brandt). I used several layers of accryllic, and then added silver leaf to some places for a shimmering, night-sky effect. In the beginning I was really not liking this project but i think it turned out alright. Part of the process was to have 5 separate sections, separated by interesting lines. I didn't really get how it was all going to tie together and still look like one idea but I think it works.
