DAMN THE BUBBLEGUM - Limited Edition 2 of 10 Photograph

This is part of a series of pictures inspired by cultures who were prone to painting their faces be it for war, entertainment, culture or vanity. In the case of DAMN THE BUBBLEGUM, it is the only one of the series not resembling a certain culture, rather it reminded me of bubblegum and in this case it would seem that the subject had really made a mess of things hence not seeming too pleased. DAMN THE BUBBLEGUM has really put it's foot in it so to speak. Although bright and vibrant, resembling also a stunning sunset, it dawns on the viewer that there is also an occupation of contemplation. I wanted to exaggerate the application of paint as to seem like it may be a true impasto painting on canvas as well as to exaggerate each character in the series. The addition of the photograph having been face-mounted on acrylic sheet and allowing light penetration and refraction making the colours more brilliant and the image sharper than with standard glass in a picture frame. A Diasec mount is of a high gloss finish which I like because of the shellac shine complimenting the wet paint in the photograph. The photograph is also protected against ultraviolet (UV) light. Diasec contains UV light inhibitors to help protect the image from UV light.
