Found Art
So what exactly is "Found Art"? Art created by taking random found objects and making something new out of them; otherwise upcycling or recycling something to give it a new lease on life.
In my case, it is taking something I discovered that might otherwise be thrown away and refreshing it and infusing it with new life. These are one of a kind paintings, something I will not be taking full credit for (as they are collaborations with forgotten artists), but they now become something unique and fresh. This is where I can let out my inner comic con geeks, as I create mash ups of popular fan fiction or pop culture references. In other words, it's just the most fun you can imagine!

What was added? Let's check it out in detail. First, there's the obvious Snow Walker from the battle of Hoth in the Star Wars Movie, "Empire Strikes Back". But I also thought it would be fun to put some rebels fighting back down below, and even a rebel ship flying in for the rescue. The explosions, the gunfire, and the laser blasts from the snow walker were all so much fun to add in! The last thing I added was the same colors from the explosions to the lighting in the windows and a bit of smoke coming from the chimney. It adds to the feeling of a Star Wars/Kinkade mash-up, and somehow, it is always hilarious to think of a space battle happening in a Kinkade painting.
