acrylic/collage/colored pencil on 12″X12″ canvas
34 Starts
This past week-end I taught a 2-day workshop about my process of making (building) acrylic/collage paintings. As my process is to work layer upon layer, which, of course requires drying (and thinking) time, it doesn’t work to demonstrate making a painting straight through, start to finish. It was necessary to both bring a variety of starts and demonstrate starts, second steps, third steps, etc. etc.
So now I have 34 new small (12″X12″ and 11″X14″) paintings going, all in various stages of completion. I could hardly wait to get my workshop tubs unloaded so I could start painting.
Still playing. I suppose that next step is that I’ll begin to feel the need to name these “paintings”. But for now, here is
Digital 5.
I have added a new collection of pages entitled Making Better Art, where I am beginning to assemble my vast accumulation of random thoughts on the topic into some sort of coherent order.
