Sketchbook Project: Page 16

In becoming a part of this Sketchbook Project, I had to choose a theme from a list. I chose "The Companion Book," as my theme and have thought about the sketchbook as my companion through the days I have spent on it.

As I near the end of this project, I wanted to look at the companions I have had on this creative journey.  The left side of the page highlights some of "My Companions." The painted page ended up reminding me of a paint palette, which seemed oh so appropriate. "My Companions" in working on this Sketchbook Project are...Music, Art, Paint, Color, Prokofiev, and My Sketchbook.


The right side of the page was used to let the viewer know a bit about me. Here's what I wrote:

About Me:
Wendy Meg Siegel

I am a mixed media artist with two
great passions: painting and music.
Music is part of my process and my
greatest joy is to paint while dancing
to the music. I grew up in New York
and now live in California where the
beauty of the mountain mist and the
visions of the coastal marine layer
never fail to dazzle me. For a number
of years, I have enjoyed incorporating
my photos into my paintings, utilizing
multiple canvas layers, and further
developing canvases with the use of
papers and other textural elements.
