Magical Worlds of Manuel Sanchez

I had a vision that I was swinging from a moon.  And that was sober.  That’s how good this is.

ARTS & CRAFTS// A Flock of Cranes.

Every once in a while I like to paint neutral pieces to decorate my house.  I mean, why buy a print when I can paint it myself?  My living room was painted with sea foam stripes last year, and aside from various pieces of matching furniture, the room lacked a unifying secondary color.  I decided that the complementary color to these stripes were going to be an ocher or a mustard yellow, so I set about planning a painting for the blank space between the boudoir and the TV.  

What I decided to do was paint miniature flowers all over a large sheet of cardboard-  kind of like a wall paper.  I started painting from the right hand corner in a custom mixed yellow, and a few hours later, realized that the yellow flowers seemed 1) kind of girly and 2) a bit boring.  So I changed it up and made it into a sort of gradient starting with yellow flowers and ending with brick colored flowers at the bottom.  

I wanted a flock of birds flying over the flowers in a silhouette but as I started thinking about this concept, my mind started shifting toward a more creative approach:  what if the flock of birds were origami cranes?  

By day three, my painting finally came to fruition-  those flowers took over 12 hours to paint, and I am so glad I am done.
