I am still not sure how to finish my large painting so I am “wrapping” it. Just the process of laying out the paper and moving the painting onto it is very thought provoking. All sorts of ideas are bubbling around.
- Find other things to continue layering the wrapping process, like material, wallpaper.
- Maybe even painting on the new surfaces with more paint.
- Leave the paper as one layer but add more parcel tape to it so that only small pieces can be removed at a time.
For now I am only adding the one layer of paper and string. The following photographs that I took, show the stages of the wrapping process.
