Leaving Your Mark

This series of work portrays the idea of leaving something behind that will have a lasting effect. The metal leaf is the contributable element that makes a significant impact to the composition. Much like how a person leaves behind a mark on society, the gold leaf resembles this in ways where it grabs the audiences’ undivided attention and compliments areas of the painting without taking away other areas’ attention in the painting. The title of each painting implies the naturalistic or descriptive ways for leaving something behind that has a significant impact.
