2 in 1 Sitting....

 

Although at first glance, there may be a lot of consistency from work to work, in order to keep the process always fresh and unexpected, I mess with procedure. Although they are all small, the slight variations in size are very important and have a huge influence on the work. I change the methodology and working procedures in various ways. Here, the size is a bit smaller than usual, and 2 are done in one sitting, one right after the other. Seen here are 2 consecutive days.....2 works from one day, 2 from the next.

Twilight Stand

 

Twilight Stand (Sold)
....the last sliver of light as I head home. Acrylic collage painting on gessoed, thin birch panel 7.5 x 12 inches.

One of the reasons I like doing the collages so much is I never know what I'm going to get. I painted this sheet that ended up being used for the sky...... and had it sitting on a pile of paints to dry. I'd look over at it every so often, admiring it, wondering what I could use it for. I always like it when I notice a sheet after I cover it with paint....it's a sign it will be used for something later. Mind you, there are 1000s of painted sheets that might never get used sitting in my piles.......
