Blue Cypress; Brushstrokes IV

Author: Eunyoung Yang (Meredith College)

Abstract

The purpose of this project was to demonstrate the visual connection between artistry and the interpretation of renowned artwork translated into expressions of fashion design. The free flowing form of cypress tree and the color palette of the night sky were the inspirations from Vincent Van Gogh’s painting, Cypresses (1889). The main objective of this project was to incorporate Van Gogh’s unique brushstroke of artistic interpretation of nature by using felting techniques to create a wearable art piece.
