Description: |
"Flight" is another example of my Cut Canvas technique. I was remembering my wind-surfing days when I came up with the idea for this piece. What a delightful sight, watching those multi-colored sails skit across the water. This is an interesting piece, and a real conversation starter. The canvas is painted to about 90% completion. Then the canvas is cut and shaped. Thus is a fun technique, but cutting up a beautiful canvas can test an artist's courage the first few times. That's why I named these works "Daring Art". I had to dare myself to do it the first time. I love the way these pieces look; they always get noticed and commented on in my studio. This 3-D cut canvas process might appear fragile, but it is not. In fact it is amazingly resilient and tough. The multiple layers of gesso and paint make the canvas very stiff and resilient. Creating these paintings is not a simple process, but it is enjoyable and I love how it keeps evolving. I love the way these pieces look. They always get noticed and commented on in my studio. |
