Acrylic paint on Graphix film 4″ x 4″ image (8″ x 8″ matted and framed behind glass) This vibrant pink, blue, and black painting is a cacophony of colors and shapes that each attem pt to capture the viewers' attention. It reminds me of being in a crowded dance club with all the patrons competing to be heard. Cacophony is a small, framed and matted acrylic painting behind glass. I begin by selecting my paints, taking into account the opacity, density, and color mixing properties of each color. I add floetrol (an additive that improves flow and leveling of paint) and silicone. The big moment comes when I pour the liquid concoction onto Graphix film, tilting and tipping to get the look I want. I use a butane torch to get cells of color to bubble up to the surface. Show more
