Colour Attack

This is another of my favourites. I can’t remember the exact date I painted it… it was roughly January or February of 2006. I used acrylic on cardboard (but HOW I used it is a secret!), approximately 63cm x 51cm.

    It looks like pastels or oil pastels. Very cool! Come on, share your secret….. : )

  • Sarah Bentvelzen replied

    All right. I put paper towels over the cardboard and added acrylic on top and lots of water so the colour would seep through unevenly onto the cardboard… then i remove the paper towel and replace it with more – then adding another colour and repeating the method…. i just kept doing it until i was satisfied with the result.

    Sarah,
    What a unique technique you used Every color of the rainbow and beyond seem to fill my eyes. You are a wonderful colorist and your images sing. Amazing that the cardboard could withstand the acrylic onslaught!
