1. I used five mediums in this piece. First, I cut newspaper into pieces and glued it down flat against the cardboard. I let that dry, then put strips of tissue paper I had ripped on top of that. I started with orange, then worked my way up through red, pink, purple, and blue. I made the sun out of tissue paper as well and put that on top. Then, I carved mountains out of really thick cardboard. Finally, I used chalk pastels and charcoal pencil to add color and dimension to the mountains, then glued that on top of my sunset. Essentially, lots of glue was used.
2. My words were sunset and bliss. The sunset is pretty obviously portrayed, but I based bliss off of one of my favorite places, a cabin that my family and I stay at near the Blue Ridge Mountains. The mountains were made to look similar to the view from the Blue Ridge Parkway.
