Tuesday, December 16, 2014. Setting foot on new grounds! My last experiment was inconclusive, but in an attempt to make a half-step forward with at least something, I painted a face haphazardly with Chinese black ink on rice paper. I hadn't touched black ink for 7 years! I then pasted the torn rice paper on cotton/linen and added glazes of transparent and semi-transparent colors with acrylics. The result agreed with me! Friday, December 5, 2014. Starting a new one with an idea in mind. NEW - View video o...

Sunday, September 14, 2014. American woman (30" X 40") . Threading (treading) on thin ice with the American flag! Capitalizing on my stay in the Eastern Townships, I finished this painting in the larger studio, using my usual collage technique, and. Wanting to add a companion painting to my previous painting "American dream". In the process, I couldn't resist this selfie, in keeping with a recent trend from fellow artists. Demonstrating their creative rage during the painting process. In retrospect, I re...

Ron's Conversations in Paint: "Tourbillon" - taking another slant on the wild side!
http://rongravel.blogspot.com/2015/04/tourbillon-taking-another-slant-in-wild.html
Wednesday, April 8, 2015. Tourbillon" - taking another slant on the wild side! I finished the previous painting with my usual tri-dimensional deconstruction technique. The previous version was fine, however, something in me wants to pursue a more visceral approach. The balancing act between the two approaches is exciting to me! PS Although I've tried different deconstruction approaches over the last few years, I seem to be coming back to this one. so why fight it! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
