Playing with knives
This work is created with thick lush oil as well as textile. Oils is applied with my fingers and palette knives to create a really lush thick surface. I work into the paint with oil sticks. When the work is dried I work to cancel out some areas, receding areas and bringing other sections forward. I use textile and old unfinished paintings, which I cut and rip into shapes and securely affix to the surface. There is a conversation with the canvas, a back and forth with mediums and composition until I feel it is complete. The entire surface is unified with a satin UV protective varnish. The work is ready to hang.
