Tiny Labels, Feather and Gold

16 x 16″ (40 x 40 x 4cm)
Original painting – acrylic on canvas. 

This piece was based on one on a tiny collage I made, which I used as inspiration for this bigger painting.

I had in mind a modern take on Victorian specimin collectors, boxes of treasures… I collected items from around my home and studio to make the collage, and I wanted to keep this ‘pieced together’ feeling in the finished painting – although also working towards an overall harmony.

Various techniques were used to build up interesting textures and marks, as well as rubbing back the canvas at various stages.
