I haven't mastered photographing my works; the result never justifies the personal view. Nonetheless, here is a piece I did this week. The title in the image and the border were added in editing, and aren't parts of the original work.

Emergence
Tissue paper and acrylic paint on stretched canvas

The previous piece is the first of a series of 3, 18" x 11 1/8" works I produced during the week off. This one is on a 1/8" wood panel rather than canvas, but all use tissue paper & acrylic paint as the pigment and have a coating of acrylic goo.

Growth

I'm not sure even a sharp photo would capture the texture on the previous 2 panels; a lot of the paper stands 1/8 to 1/4 inch off the surface. This last poor photograph is of the 3rd panel and the paper is applied flat in layers.

Choices

Is it just me, or would the last three entries all look the same to someone who is color blind?


A quality of ignorance, self-deception may be necessary to the poet's survival.

I'd hope not! That would indicate much more than color-bindness.

From Turtle's descriptions, I get the feeling that you can't really "feel" these unless you "feel" these. In other words, I think it is all about the texture, but I don't know for sure without experiencing it in person.

The main theme of each actually started with color. Here's another way to experience my panels vicariously through me.
