Portrait - Twins

To continue on with my mirror piece, I decided to add text around the painting in acrylic red paint. I added “Which twin are you again?” which is a question I heard for majority of my younger life, people around us friends, teachers even extended family members tie me and my twin into one person. It feels quite disrespectful back then and now but it also truly messes with your sense of self and your identity, or your portrait. I had many years where I never felt like my own person and I think this piece truly captures that for me, that I would’ve looked in the mirror and not been sure who I was looking at.

I asked one of my peers to help me take some pictures with this mirror, we worked in a few spots around the college picking spots with a plain background and bright lighting. We worked on different angles where i had to hold the mirror at angle that from my perspective was far away but on camera lined up perfectly.

Overall I was pleased with this result and piece as I think it lines up with this brief very well as I explained more above, I would like to potentially get better and higher qualities of this in the future and possibly work out some interesting lighting tricks to do too.

mirror carp

I always wanted to make my own Holiday postcards, and what could be a better theme for one than the fish that's associated with them so strongly in my country! Ironically I've literally never eaten one, but I always loved how they look.

Mirror carp's large scales are considered a lucky symbol in Poland (some people still keep one in their wallets) - with the help of my wooden and acrylic charms you can now get a lucky symbol of your own without the questionable scent 😂

Several months ago I started painting raindrops on mirrors for fun, to scratch an itch / a silly idea I had, an extension of all the rainy paintings I’ve made over the years. They’re little paintings but they’re playful, they’re only finished when the viewer is looking at themselves, in another dimension where it rains all the time. The first collection of the Only Happy When It Rains mirrors will hit my online shop on Friday at 10am - sign up for my mailing list via https://mailchi.mp/0df1cb95c755/ewomailinglist if you want to be notified first. A portion of sales will be donated to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, in honor of play ❤️💦🌧️

Portrait - Twins

I wanted to incorporate a 3D object in my further exploration of the brief and I had decided to choose a mirror which I bought as it reflects our portrait back to us. I decided that it would be an interesting idea to paint half of my twins face in the mirror as we were so often viewed as one and the same throughout our lives.

I decided to use acrylic paint on the mirror and did a pretty quick painting of half of my twins face, I used blues, greens, yellows and red strokes of paint for shading and kept said brushstrokes pretty loose to capture a vague reflection

I want to potentially add some text around the reflection to get the meaning of this piece, I also want to ask one of my peers to help me take pictures with this mirror so my face is aligned next to the one that’s painted on.
