Spontaneous Combustion

Mixed media

Coppell High School
Instructor: Tamera Westervelt

My purpose was to incorporate my self-portrait and a personal symbol as well as my favorite book quote and artist. I found a common theme of combustion among these elements and utilized warm colors to convey the emotion of angry frustration. I created movement and emphasis using repetition and diagonals respectively.
