Great Exhibit Opening at Cove Gallery Saturday night

I attended the opening of my latest handmade paper paintings at Cove Gallery in Wellfleet, Cape Cod Saturday night (http://www.covegallery.com/).  Nice to meet some patrons who have been collecting my work for years but I had never had the chance to meet them.  Beautiful evening: warm, dry, salty air, perfect for an art reception.

Handmade Paper Paintings: Process and Applications. The finished painting.


After the painting is completely dry, it can be tacked to a wall for closer viewing and inspection.  The painting can be worked on even in this stage.  I mark the areas with a colored grease pencil in which I want to make changes and then replace the painting back onto the flat work surface seen in previous blogs.  I add additional PVC glue to the pulp that I will now apply in order for it to adhere to the already dried pulp.
