A reflection of the Mona Lisa painting in contemporary form. The painting is a mirror of Lisa Gherardini (Mona Lisa) in a modern era. This was done in honor of Leonardo Da Vinci’s creativity through his beautiful paintings. Blue represents the mirror; a reflection of Mona Lisa in my own perspective. It was Inspired by a painting called the Mona Lisa which was said to have been painted between 1503 and 1507; however, Leonardo may have continued working on it as late as 1517. I created Mona Lisa's Mirror because my creativity is partially inspired by Da Vinci’s work. I have never seen his work in person but I try to study it and learn from it aswell. I read that Leonardo Davinci would always encourage his students to recreate his work and I have always felt like one of his students so doing it was a privilege. My love for color created it this way; in my imagination I saw a present view of Mona Lisa as an art piece with a contemporary sense; pop culture like; it is as if she was alive in the 21st Century. I have done three creations of Mona Lisa's Mirror so far and I love them all. I did this spontaneously because of how inviting it felt to create it and because of its heritage. The art piece always captures people's eye and leaves them mesmerized; the feeling is magical and transcends all art.
