Ask a question about this painting


 An original mixed media painting using modelling paste string and acrylic paint.

 

For those interested, and I am always surprised to find out how many seem to be, the painting is on a box canvas measuring 16”x20”. The “stems” were made with cut up pieces of string , the “heads” with modelling paste. The painting was then covered in colour using wet hands and left to dry. A clear acrylic gel glaze was then put on again using hands, a messy job but a feeling of involvement. Once dry another glaze this time of white with a hint of yellow was applied and washed back off some of the areas. A further gel glaze was added and left to dry. the “brush” a the bottom was put in with burnt umber and a hint of purple.  Then the highlights were added and in some areas the petals darkened.

16" x 20"  This painting although seen framed is painted over the edges so could be removed from the frame and hung as it is.
