Paintings > AWGP (after wood-grain patterns)

In this series, each gouache-and-acrylic painting is based on the wood-grain pattern of the panel that it is painted on.

The following describes the process for making these works:

1) trace the wood-grain pattern of the face of the panel;

2) cover panel with opaque white acrylic ground;

3) apply layers of gouache and acrylic paint to the face of the panel;

4) transfer the wood-grain pattern onto the panel face;

5) modify the resulting image with acrylic paint.
