TEXTURE VENTURES TAKE OVER THE WORLD, AT LEAST MY WORLD IN THE HOME STUDIO
24th February, 2019
So, you have heard about the meanderings into printing from paint on a pallet and using unlikely textured surfaces such as kitchen roll, to bare the brunt of such meanderings Well, now I am wondering about how I can use this technique on a larger scale in relation to the large paintings that I do. I also do more varied sizes these days and I am enjoying the smaller work also, but I do love to work large scale. What I want is for the chosen surface when printed to emanate a certain rawness. This should be the kind of rawness that you could find on a derelict wall in a city, or in the same manner, the rawness evoked from a bog in the middle of nowhere.
Opposite you will see early an early experiment . They are not particularly large, but they are the result of mixing colour and then printing that colour onto a surface. I hope to now look for larger surface areas to work on that, when printed ,will reflect the former rawness mentioned.
I am looking forward to this immensly.
