Description I was deeply inspired by a painting that appears for like 3 seconds in the beginning of Broken Bells' music video for Holding On For Life. This image is similar 2.bp.blogspot.com/-8roll9boKtI But the painting in the video was more green. Anyways, I wanted to paint more interesting textures along with painting something luminous, I failed at getting the textures right. But, on the other hand, I feel like this picture is really glowing, so that makes me happy.
Alyssa Stehle, Lincoln Member Since August 2015 Artist Statement I grew up in Chicago Illinois but currently live in Lincoln Nebraska. I've been drawing most of my life, and because of that, it is a major part of my life. Early on I was influenced my my mother and great grandmother's art combined with the rising popularity of anime in the 90's. As a teen I became mesmerized my surrealism and dada. Now it seems I'm easily influenced by retro kitsch. I love collecting prints!
