Misc. Paintings in Progress and Printmaking Projects

The paintings I have from Painting I are still in progress. I decided to expand upon the work I have completed in the class because I don't feel that art is ever complete. It is constantly changing and evolving as time passes and I think that it is an artist's right to continue to expand and edit a piece of work should they feel compelled to do so. As with the painting below, my father is collaborating my work and his to create a custom frame. An old frame is being used as an outside border, and an inner border of wine corks is being created to frame the actual painting. The painting was created using oil paints.
