he Ethereal World of California, my new art series is based upon the fantasized ideals of California. Being born a native texan, the world of California was glamorous in my eyes. From the Highest glistening skyscrapers to the colorful characteristics of its hobos, there was so much energy in California. Within my series I wanted to show the same energy I feel and see everyday living in California. The body of works I posses range in sizes of 18x 24,16x 20, and 12x12. Each size is chosen with the best compositional layout in mind as well as each subject matter. Using found newspapers, mosaic tile pieces, and my own personal photo reference I find inspiration in everyday life to create abstract scenes of Californian lives.
