I've been working on paper on and off over the last two weeks trying out various ideas; so I could have something to submit to the juror of the Spring show of the Watercolor Society of Oregon (WSO). This is a water media show so it allows certain collage elements and opaque media to be used. The fall WSO show is transparent watercolor only, which is less and less what I do. Even working on paper is much less the way I work now days. I enjoy the organization, the friends I've met, and skills Ive learned through their workshops, but my current interests and art making is less in-sync with the group.
My evolution began with the quest for more physical textures in the paint surface, either through stiff paint or substances added to the paint or adhered to the surface. That sentence does not describe watercolor.
Here is a current effort that is passing my first week of review.
