Description
"Progressions". 2018, mixed media on paper. 11"x14".
The name of this series comes from the progressive layering of thin layers of ink. I’d done a lot with progressive darkening using thin washes of translucent pigments. What I hadn’t experimented with before was thin layers of light, opaque colours. For some reason, I had this idea in my head that they’d always get really granular and gross looking. To some extent, that’s true – but I found that mixing in enough gel medium would suspend the grains of opaque pigment long enough for them to cure in place instead of curdling.
All works on paper are shipped matted, mounted and sleeved in cellophane. 11"x14" pictures like this one fit standard 16"x20" frames.
