Flipbook

Still working on the audio and details of pages, but here is the majority of my flipbook for class.
The concept of a wineglass girl was one I've been thinking about since high school, and I'm glad I was able to do something involving it finally. The girl, glass, vase and candle are all supposed to be representative of a romanticized and idealized feeling. The girl seems fragile and is made of glass, but then later blooms flowers because she holds such beauty. Strength is held in this beauty, which is why most of the images are in black and white, until it comes to the fire on the candle and the flowers from her mind.

The idea that I went with was still exciting to me but my execution of the project fell a little flat of my expectations...  I wanted to make an image transfer.  I began by printing out five images of special moments that I had. four images were in black and white and one was in color. The four b+w images were good memories, but the color was my favorite of them. I cut all of the pictures into inch squares and mixed them together so I wouldn't know which pieces I was grabbing. Then I spread gloss heavy gel on a blank canvas sheet and began placing the squares around the canvas in random order. I wanted to repre...
