I enjoy the clean, crisp lines and shapes of the paintings; while maintaining this style, I sought to find an concept that would create more random shapes within a single piece. A shattered mirror produces random, unpredictable pieces which I found to be a striking contrast from the predictability of the previous pieces. To mimic this effect, I started at the top left corner with 10 layers and attempted to create a shattered glass effect building towards the bottom right. The right side of this painting is one of my favorite sections of all the pieces.
