Because I cannot just work on one piece at a time…
September 1, 2018The painting pictured is 40” sq, done on a 2" deep box frame. This work in progress is not titled yet - it will evolve and the name will surface. I used caulk to create the surface figure lines and am embedding some of my small people shapes within.
The figure will be holding a large, real sand dollar in contemplation. Silver outlines will be coated in iridescence to represent the energy that flows through all things and connects us all. Note the crackled background, we are connected even when fractured. And as the Japanese art of Kintsugi shows us, when we come back together we can be stronger and more beautiful than before.
The other pix are the Winged Spiral with new surface texture finished and ready to be coated in bronze. After that will come patina…
