When I made 'Dreams' (see previous post), I actually pasted a few pieces of used toto lottery tickets on the flyer (card stock). I then painted all of them together, and cut out the part I needed for dreams.
The inspiration for this came from looking at what was left. I saw lots of red (because the background used in the flyer was red), and green (because that was my base colour for 'Dreams', which put in mind of a lush landscape.
However, I wanted the piece to have a touch of the modern to it as well, hence the abstract sharp-edged pieces used to create the palm tree. How the tree was constructed may also have something to do with the fact that I am drawn to triangular shapes, and circles.
