Sample piece 3




This piece was created using a small square canvas I already had at home and wasn't using. I decided to use this canvas as an experimentation. I wanted to practice layering different coloured paint on top of one and other and then scraping that paint back off using a palette knife. I created this piece using gouache paint and a heat gun to crack it and dry it rapidly. I then scratched away at the top layer to reveal the undercoat of light blue. I used a craft knife to cut into the piece to give a worn out effect and to experiment with how the canvas would hold with bits missing.
