This is acrylic on crescent board with lots of texture. I did a grid composition so I could experiment with texture in the different boxes. I used Golden Crackle Paste, Light Modeling Paste, Gesso and Matte Gel.
They each give a very unique surface, and take the paint so differently. I especially love the way the crackle came out when the paint was thinned before applying. The designs are hand carved stamps I made, and the text is from old book pages collaged on the surface.
Also acrylic with a textured surface of Matte Gel and Gesso. This is definitely in process and I may cover the whole painting with an opaque mask.
This one is acrylic with collage and ink on canvas. I added some marks and line drawings with pencil.
This one is on Crescent Illustration Board that I covered with collage, stamping, and lots of drawing. I used stencils for the numbers. Then I negative painted around the shapes to create the composition. I am
happy with this one and it is finished.
