"Rota" Painting

This painting uses the top of a found suitcase as a ground. Before I started the artwork, the covering of the case was removed to expose the wooden structure underneath -this can be clearly seen in the irregularities , abrasions and exposed hardware. The head of “Rota” is heavily painted in white, with pigment showing through crackled paint. The layers of paint surrounding the head have been scraped down, repainted and scraped again, using sgraffito here and drawing attention to the heavy application of paint. Accenting color and incisions also help to show off the form. The look of the actual suitcase is not at all diminished by the painting- they work quite well in tandem. Note that the dimensions of this painting are approximate.
