This week I found a wooded area close to Burbank, that turned out to be a beautiful spot full of wildlife. I saw deer, chickens, and even peacock while I was painting. You can hear the sounds of nature in the video below.
My method for painting this piece was to use a scrub brush I had found at the dollar store to spread the paint around the canvas. I also used a can of spray paint without the tip to get an accidental vibe across the board. My favorite part of this piece is the texture on the right side. I used magazine pages topped with acrylic paint to get the look you see here.
Ever since I can remember I've been drawn to gorilla marketing in metropolitan areas, specifically with the use of wheat pasting. I like seeing a flyer repeatedly pasted to a wall. It's a really old technique for marketing and street art, and I've always loved it. I've been experimenting with paper in my work, and so I think we're gonna see a lot more of it.
Thanks for checking out my work and supporting my #OffLocation project. If you'd like to help me accomplish these weekly projects with a donation that goes directly toward my trips to art supplies, it would mean so much to me. You can do so by tapping on the donate button at the top of this page. Thanks for being a fan.
