Week 6 Stencil

For my stencil I have decided to depict an image of a candle similar to the one in the photo below. I spent a while thinking about different images that I thought would look cool or be fun in terms of design, but I ended up picking a candle because I have really been appreciating comfort and warmth recently. I want to use the stencil medium to exaggerate the light and warmth that exudes from a candle by drawing soft ripples around the light. I try to go home every other weekend so I can regroup and relax, and I always try to light candles and create a certain atmosphere for myself.
