Another work which investigates different techniques in acrylic, as well as the effect of colour schemes. It consists of an underlayer of opaque paints, which is then overlaid with transparent layers, then finished with the opaque pure white on the left side of the image.
This work is partially an investigation of the technique of pointillism. It also investigates the use of glazing and layering of transparent colours with the acrylic medium. One of my photographs from the Melbourne CBD was used as a reference for the image.
Firstly it's great to be posting again. This is a collograph print from a recently completed series of work which investigates the use of animals as metaphors for primal human emotions. The series also contemplates the juxtaposition of these feelings with the fabricated environments of modern society.
