Gesso, Acrylic, Oil on Reclaimed Wooden Panel with fixings ready to hang
54 cm wide x 48 cm high x 1.5 cm deep
An original painting signed and dated by the artist
Inspired by the beauty of a fading fresco my technique is one of layering, sanding and scratching away areas to reveal the underlying textures and colours. The paint is applied thinly over a gesso ground, areas are then sanded back to reveal the layers below. I also scratch into the surface to create the impression of age and decay, often using reclaimed wood and incorporating the aged patina which adds to the sense of history.
