Craft: for these pieces of art done by Sister Solina, she basically said that she did these pieces out of feeling not thought process. She didn't really have any technique that she was favorable to, but she did what she felt right. The first piece of art, the flowers, was done in oil paint on canvas, while the other was done in mosaic tiles. They are both obviously very well crafted and put together greatly, and are extremely attractive pieces of art.Concept: the concept of these pieces of art were again quite vague according to Sister Solina, because she just did what she was feeling at that moment. She said that she thought flowers were a great example of light, when the rest of the world is dark. She also did several pieces on holy figures and Catholic symbols as well. She felt that these pieces were interesting and also very important to her life, so she did art accordingly. The concept of the bright flowers coming out of the dark was extremely inspiring because it gives a sense of hope, that not all is lost. The mosaic tiles are very well crafted, and done according to her beliefs in Mary and the Holy Spirit. There were several pieces of crosses and the Holy Spirit, etc. that she enjoyed to paint.
Composition: The compositional arrangements for most of the pieces that Sister Solina Hicks did were of either flowers or Holy concepts. The flower painting, was done in oil and has very bright and vibrant colors with a dark background, relating to her concept that Sister Solina had discussed. The mosaic was of a Holy figure, probably Mary, and done in tiles with the figure being the main focus in the middle of the canvas. She displays very clearly that this is a Holy figure and uses several crosses and holy spirit references in her pieces of art.
