Description
I used a palette knife to sculpt into multiple layers of paint. I closed my eyes and pictured people carving an image of a grandmother who just passed away. Putting her features into stone creates a lasting image of respect.
The choice of purple hues to represent the stages of the grandmother's life is symbolic, with the lighter shades indicating her youth and the darker ones her maturity and wisdom. I mixed the shades together to tell a visual story of her journey through life, encapsulating her experiences and the impact she had on those around her.
