MODERN ART & MINDFULNESS
These art pieces have been created, keeping in mind the earth and its elements. It focuses on carefree, relaxed and calming organic shapes.
There is simplicity in the shapes but yet a strong connection to the deeper self, as it encourages you to create shapes that flow from your heart.
Concept behind the Artwork
This series of art work was designed with the foresight of the interconnectivity between Earth and all living beings.
The artwork was created for a Company that is taking one simple action to try and reduce the divide between the pain the Earth is feeling from our extraction of resources, and the necessities we need for life.
The artwork has a calming tone to the colour and flow of lines without losing the structure and focus in the depth. It focuses on combining the wild free beauty of our planet with the defined structure of socially conscious companies tackling Earth's problem, for Earth, using Earth.
Materials Required:
- Mixed media paper 11x9 inches
- Pencil and eraser
- Sharpie (thick and thin)
