3G Show pieces with Autumn Society

Here are my pieces for the Autumn Society's upcoming 3G show at Gallery 1988.

The 3 Gs of 3G are Ghostbusters, Gremlins, and Goonies, so each artist had to interpret all three movies in three separate pieces.

These were super fun to make; I was very inspired by old Victorian portraits of children with their pets & dolls, and was thinking about the iconic elements of all three movies that would pair well with children/young adults. And people who know my art know I love drawing/painting ladies and animals, so this was a way to marry the theme with my style.

I wanted to also make them very somber and ornate, like small Victorian cameos, hence the framing technique.

Here are the show details:

Tetrisarina

I did this piece for Autumn Society's 8-Bit and Beyond show last August, and I just put it up on my Etsy store... whoo! I added Swarovski crystals to it, so it glitters in person : D  I looove(d) tetris growing up. I thought an elegant Russian lady would be fun to try and work in with the theme!

SOLD!
