Happy New Year!
The beginning of 2014 and I am itching to get going.
My next pieces are going to involve working on top of old paintings – or – using old paintings that I can’t quite work over yet as a starting point.
I feel I’ve worked through the limited palette of black, white and burnt sienna enough for now.
I’ve dug out an old piece from a year or so ago where I used wax crayon to ‘write’ to give resistance, along with emulsion and acrylic paint. Was going to paint over it, but need to look at it some more! I’ll add a photo of it on here – it has a really faded look to it. It looked much more exciting when wet.
There are some other pieces in oils which are hung on my stairs (just moved house and nowhere else to place them) so they are out of the way. I really need to work over them, one is based on a map and is thickly laid with paint and I reckon that would make for interesting painting.
