Story / Additional InfoThis artwork, began as an academic public demo, resulted in an exciting journey in discovery and process. It is not only a poured, mixed-media painting with paint drips inspired by the works of Jackson Pollock but in addition is inspired by the Indian Batik method of painting, During the process, an unprimed canvas without a coat of gesso was begun by an initial drawing with chalk and charcoal. With a layer of tempera and acrylic paint which was allowed to dry, the canvas was washed and painted over in repeated layers. A limited color palette was chosen. Once the topmost layer was reached, collaged materials were added including wood chips, matchbox-cover, metal wires, string, and cotton wool that were adhered by acrylic paint as the permanent gluing agent. (Acrylic paint has glue-like properties). The original has not been framed by choice. Photos close ups in various parts included. The reverse side of the work shows that the canvas was washed for repeated layering and wash.
