flaked paint sketches

flaked paint sketches

I often retrieve paint flakes. In these works where I use "resist" materials like postage tape, waxes and oils, etc. My water medium forms colorfully shaped flakes; pareidolia, marks of line, shape, relief and movement are used in creating these "sketches".

these flakes are set with areas securely lifting off the paper surface @1"
