Ky Anderson, a Brooklyn-based artist I respect immensely, asked
me to create something for her venture, Dusk. Dusk employs a very loose
definition of the word edition. In a usual edition, for instance, each piece
matches almost identically; but I use hand-cut paper stencils, many layers of them, a
separate one cut for each board, and the paint splotches unevenly, making
each piece unique. I created two editions: Serpico,
and Colette. Each was created on wood panel,
using hand-cut stencils plus soupy gesso and gloppy acrylic. Here's a view of the process:
And here is the edition Colette: 7" x 5", mixed media on panel.

Dang! These are so beautiful, Ward.
ReplyDeleteThese are really amazing and what a brilliant approach.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your kind words. This work with Ky lead me on to a number of large paintings done in the same manner, that is, with stencils. But very large stencils! I'm so glad Ky asked me to do these.
