"The Old Ranch Road" was painted from a
photo I took on a trip to Colorado last year. The road in this area is the
only sign that anyone has ever been there. I love the remote beauty of
this place. "The Recycled Landscape Series, The Old Ranch Road" is
another example of my innovative Recycled Plastics Technique. The recycled
plastic gives the canvas a wonderful surface texture. This texture is not
only interesting to look at but creates a desire to touch the piece. This
extreme texture is unattainable
with any kind of paint gels.
When viewed up-close, the
painting comes alive with texture. No matter the angle of viewing, the
texture is apparent. The combination of recycled plastic, canvas, glue,
and finally, colorful acrylic paint is my own original technique and
design. This texture is even more amazing when viewed under dimmed lights.
The play of shadows makes it take on a whole new life.
