Project three: Impressionism
Title: Mexican Cooking
Medium: Oil paint
Size: 24 in x 24 in
Exhibition text: My intention with this work was to portray the traditional working class of my culture (Mexico). My biggest inspiration came from Joaquin Sorolla, especially his use of light, space, nature, and meaning. I also wanted to convey a certain meaning and certain function as he had in Sewing the Sail. The oil painting does include a similar use of space and shape as the photography but with a similar meaning, and technique as Sorolla's work.
