Last week I took another look at this awful paintwork and decided it was best as an underpainting for a completely different piece. Then Last friday I posted a peek, after that I only added some shadow and declared the collage finished ;)
The painting was started on a canvas panel, I've used modelling paste and a template to add some dimension. When the paste was dry I painted several translucent and opaque layers with acrylic paint. I only used 4 colours and especially the mix Paynes Gray with Nickel Azo Yellow surprised me a lot, in a very good way. The other two colors I used are Titan Buff and Diarylide Yellow.
Ondanks dat er geen echt focusplaatje in de collage verwerkt zit, denk ik dat het toch wel allemaal goed samengaat. Ik hoor graag of je daar mee eens bent. Ik ben een grote meid, dus kan wel wat hebben!
Even though there's no eye catching larger item placed in the collage, I think all the small images work together. I love to hear your input on this. Just say what you think of it, I have my big girl panties on!
Geen idee hoe je met collages moet beginnen? Kijk eens bij de online cursussen van 'The Land of Lost Luggage', ik heb een boel geleerd van Chris Cozen en Julie Prichard (geen aandelen, gewoon een tevreden leerling :))
No clue how to start collaging? Take a look at the online classes at 'The Land of Lost Luggage', I've learned a lot from Chris Cozen and Julie Prichard (no affiliation, just a happy student :))
