MACHINE:

Sarah Rendon

Acrylic on Wood

I chose to paint a wooden clog I found at a tag sale this summer because when I think of "machine", I think of big and clunky. My mind also brings me to rigidity, angles, and the color palette I chose for this project. The end product show the variety of ideas the this month's theme brings to my mind. I anted to keep a section of the wood intact because i know that the first machine's were made of wood. I thought it would be nice to contrast that with my favorite type of machine -- the Apple machine!

LOST:

12"x12"

Mixed Media Collage on Canvas

It's no secret I love LOST. This piece helped me cope with the fact I miss it!

First, I found images that reminded me of the series, such as a parachute, an airplane,

an Apollo bar and the infamous lucky numbers. I aslo wanted to add one of the Dharma logos

because the initiative was always present throughout the series.

Last but not least, I couldn't forget the beautiful island setting.
