complex layers


The base of this was an opening seedpod on a dark gray background. I added lots of colors by doing a form of monoprinting--putting paint on waxed paper, then using a brayer to roll the back of the painted paper onto the piece, or vice versa.

Random monoprinting transfers paint in erratic blobs and patterns. Great fun! The unexpected results make every roll an experiment.

Acrylics in the journal.
