Paintings: Mixed Subjects

Three of the following pieces where done with what I have coined as “polymer fresco.” this is a spackling compound that I tinted with acrylic colors, then added a liquid polymer medium as a binding compound. It worked out pretty well and I did numerous pieces using this medium. I could even thin it down enough to use with an airbrush.

I have enjoyed working with wood, so I built this frame to be inseparable from the painting. Such a silly subject seemed to call for a strong architectural environment, thus elevating it to undeserved heights.

Girl with Big Eyes

I find this woman’s figure strongly reminiscent of the work of Egon Schiele, an Austrian Expressionist painter. A protégé of Gustav Klimt. He died at 20 years old in 1918.
