Abstract Painting on Paper
by Brendan Walsh (ColdGhost)
This original mixed media painting was a continuation of my recent experiment in using different techniques to apply the paint.
The work was created using Recycled fragments of other abstract artworks with paint on Cardboard layered up to create textures.
I applied the paint using Rollers, rags, scrapers, spray packs, Paint Pens and pencils.
I have been using anything except brushes as I continue to explore ways of applying the paint to the surface.
The work is an Abstract Statement Piece that would create maximum impact to any room.
This artwork is directly influenced by Graffiti in City Laneways, Vintage Billboards and other weathered surfaces.
The work is very textured from the thick built up layers of paper and paint.
This piece was also inspired by my love of gestural abstraction and my obsession with using spray paint.
Insitu examples are not to scale.
The work comes in a white frame, mounted under clear protective perspex and is ready to hang.
