New Works!










These are for a show in November. 

I really like the transparent layering I can do in Photoshop and Illustrator. It is a very difficult look to replicate with paint. I've used matte medium with small amounts of pigment before, but I've never been quite happy with the overall effect. I used cut tissue paper on these, one to several layers thick. I think it comes close to what I've been looking for.

Those are gorgeous, Chris! Tissue paper, you say? Sounds like a really original and unique process.

Way cool stuff!! Man talk about a labor intensive process. You get such wondrous results though. Great to see. Good luck with the show. I wish we could be there to see it.
