This is the third piece (mostly completed) in the body four pieces of work. The top post is the full piece, the next three are details of the piece to get the sections in focus. Then the process photos. I started with a gauche watercolor background as the others, but instead of just marking out the areas, I really started to paint in the ‘anonymous’ crowd at the bottom. I loved the way the water streaked and bled across the canvas, and was a bit disappointed that I lost a lot of the color and organic shapes when I moved on to using the stencils. Also, when the paint dried, It wasn’t as vibrant, so I felt like the crowd needed many layers. The general idea behind this work is I boiled down the power, community and sourcing of a crowd on social media into 6 major areas, crowd-funding, philanthropy, promoting independent arts/creative projects, political revolutions, crowd voting and a collective build of knowledge/intelligence. Each circular area generally represents each one of these spaces on the internet. I wanted to give a feeling of comments, thoughts, mental bits and pieces of ideas, thoughts, emotions are flowing from the crowd not only into each orb, but also fluidly between each space as well as these categories are very loose, integrated and need each other to exist. Still thinking on this one, might add or take away some depending on how it exists with the other pieces. Dismayed to find out that my canvas on this one was cut an inch smaller in width that the others, and only figured this out AFTER I finished, grrrr.
