Paint Skin Collage Series, 2020 - 2024: Selected Examples
If you're already familiar with my work you may also be familiar with my background as a Scenic Artist: I am often hired to design and/or paint large scale backdrops, scenery, and faux-finishing for television, theatre, museum, schools, etc. As a Scenic I would often collect and save leftover scrap material to reuse or repurpose in my Fine Art/Studio practice.
​
My series of Paint Skin Collages is one such example. For many years I would peel and save the dried paint from the inside of my five-gallon mixing buckets. These "paint skins" as I think of them are truly beautiful as objects in and of themselves. I turned my collection of Pain Skins into a series of 350 (!!!) small, square collages. I began working on this series in February of 2020 and completed it during the early days of the Pandemic Lockdown.
Each collage measures about 8x8" if purchased unframed, and 12x12" when purchased with a standard white frame and white mat. Custom framing is also available!
