Recycled plastic landscape collage
I haven't been sending out much mail art lately. I need to get some work together for a little upcoming show and what's intersting me are the little things I make (thinking I'll send them out).
This morning I decided to do a colour study using a bit of leftover plastic as a starting point. I inteded to whip these off and send them out. I decided I would choose three colours in the plastic and mix them to make different values and hues and then sew the plastic to the surface. The background painting began as a middle value from mixing two of the dominant colours in the plastic. As I continued to paint, they seem to have been inspired by Diebenkorn and my fused plastic quilts.
The bad news is that I have been forbidden from sending these out as well.
