Self Reflection

I was inspired to create "Self Reflection" when I opened a kitchen cabinet in my house and was met with my reflection staring back at me. The clarity, but also distortion of the image intrigued me, so I decided to translate it into a work of art. I photographed myself holding the silver cup and then meticulously recreated it using colored pencils, making sure to include as much detail as possible. For me, this piece was an exploration of something very familiar to me, my reflection, from a new and different perspective.
