Constructed Paintings
At an early point in my artistic career, I wanted to merge painting and sculpture. So, I began constructing stretcher bars out of wood, covering them with canvas, and painting them with acrylic paint while adding encaustic elements. The results are listed below.
"Broken"
Acrylic, encaustic, string, wood, and canvas
36" X 18"
"Silent Death"
Acrylic, encaustic, strong, wood, and canvas
36" X 15"
"Entanglement"
Acrylic, mesh, encaustic, on canvas
20" X 12"
Working on shaped canvas I wanted to explore creating a sculpted canvas shape.
"Black as Night"
Acrylic, string, encaustic, wood, and canvas
20" X 22"
Working on shaped canvas I wanted to explore multiple materials.
"Flight"
Acrylic, encaustic, mesh, and canvas
32" X 45"
Working on shaped canvas I wanted to create a sculpture that expressed movement.
