Hill Town
(mixed media on canvas, 24 x 12 in)
Working on the Textured Door paintings, I wondered how the methods used on those paintings might work on a more traditional image, so I began work on this view of a hill town.
A while ago I produced a collage of cut up inkjet prints of various views of places mostly in Croatia. It was tall and narrow and didn't fit in with my obsession with square paintings, so I put it away. Now that I wanted to try my new methods, I remembered I had a box of 24 x 12 inch canvases, ordered when I was making larger oil paintings, so I pulled one out of the storage room.
There's a lot of stuff on this painting - washi tape, tissue paper, pieces of magazine and envelopes, even some patterned wrapping tape, as well as acrylic paint and gels.
It was an interesting project and seems to have worked pretty well. Oh, and because people have already asked, the white circles are satellite dishes!

I like this, and the one before it even better! Always wanted to do something similar to the above, but never succeeded. See my stuff at mixedmediamanic.blogspot if you wish.
