"Wine with Friends" $75
Watercolor, Collage, Acrylic painting 7" x 10" |
I had started this several days ago, and just didn't quite know what to do with the beginning, so I thought, why not add a couple of wine glasses, since I had collaged the word, "Wine", in the painting. That's when my problems started. It's really hard to add something "real" in these abstract paintings without a "plan" beforehand. But, I stuck it out and kept layering till I got a painting that I was happy with. I actually had to get out my acrylics though and my Molotow markers (acrylic markers) for details. This is what I call an illusionary painting. My goal was to have the viewer search a little bit for the wine glasses, so they are partially transparent and ghostly. Here are my steps, for you to see the progression of this painting.

and making a dark pathway to the edges. |
Karen - I enjoyed seeing your process. I love how you brought it all together. And - yes - I found those pesky wine glasses! :o)

Once again a super piece.It looks like it was very complicated to do but sticking it out was worth while.
