This mixed media piece is called Beyond the Night. It’s inspired by Van Gogh’s Starry Night, but my own interpretation of his creation. When I first saw Starry Night, I was intrigued by how with a few thick brushstrokes he was able to create so much depth and detail. I wanted to create more detail about what I saw and try it myself. To create this I used mosaic tiles, grout, oil paint, and acrylics to give the effects I was looking for. Each tile was placed in a specific way to create spirals that appear like a gust of wind to bring you ‘beyond’ the night.
