Memento






My memento piece was very emotional for me. I based the piece off of a memory of getting my grandmother yellow roses for holidays, visits, and birthdays. Since my grandmother and I are close and she was recently diagnosed with breast and lung cancer I chose to focus on a single yellow rose for my memento piece. I used paper, green ink and yellow paint to assemble my piece. The rose petals are made from torn paper, the stem was made from rolling a small sheet of paper diagonally. The paint was applied in a way to bend the petals outward to take more of a rose shape.
