Themes
Contest theme: “If” or “Open Theme”
IF life is a gallery, it will have an array of many different kind of paintings. Colorful or black-and-white. Light shades or dark shadows. Cheerful tone or gloomy tone. Something shiny or something shabby. Something smooth or something rough. Something completely obvious… or a total mystery.
All of the feelings and emotions are to be found on the surfaces of the paintings. Each of them is very different, yet they are always side by side. As for us, we can only let the windows open, and see what life might bring, into our very own ‘gallery’.
Feature
All ‘paintings’ are removable and can be worn in other compositions. Or, it can be worn on its own, using the smaller pendant holder. It allows the wearer to choose any favorite ‘paintings’ to match the feelings and appearance of a moment.
