I’ve always loved seeing other artists’s process for creation. To that end, I’ve finally decided to post the process on one of my paintings. I’m currently working on a 6 ft x 4 ft piece and I figured it was as good as any to document the process on.

1) After stretching the canvas (which took a lot longer than i wanted to), I broke out my big bag of collage pieces. I used lots of gel medium and water to put them down. I had some idea thematically what I wanted to do but generally I didn’t sweat the placement too much. I like the happy accidents that can occur, plus i will end up painting over a lot of it.
