The Dance silhouettes

Posted: March 16, 2012 in New Mixed Media art

A new work on a foundation of patchwork collage composed of old letters and writing. I adhered the pieces of writing, then painted with acrylic paint, glazed with a metallic bronze and started the entire process again as I wasn’t satisfied with the first layer. The bottom corners are glazed with metallic pewter. The silhouettes are magazine cut outs painted black and adhered with matte medium. I wrote “the dance” over and over with white Signo pen down the left hand side to finish it. Probably graffiti inspired. This is a 12×12 stretched canvas.

    Love it! I think the the starting patchwork really adds a great element and cohesiveness to the overall piece.
