Flock Painting

Hello! This painting is mixed media oil painting. I used a combination of gesso, collage, painting and drawing to create this piece. I start with a layer of gesso, then I collage on that. Another layer of gesso is applied. Once dried I sand into the gesso allowing parts of the collage to come through. I then paint and draw on top of that. Once the paint has dried a layer of wax is applied and any excess is ironed off. The effect is layers of paper and paint peeking through the painting itself. This painting is all about process and problem solving.
