"EYJALLAJOKULL" Mixed Media on Acid Free Foam Core 4x4"

TEXTURES
This painting was created with fluid acrylics, tube acrylics, some surface treatments, and lots of time discovering and maneuvering shapes within the created textures. Painting it somehow seemed like a vacation away from painting, and yet 'painting' has ALWAYS seemed like a vacation... sometimes without a map or reservations. It reminded me of the huge volcano that erupted this past spring, hence the name.

Gorgeous textures, Sandy! I'd never have thought of using foam core.
I was looking over at your side bar and your workshops look so awesome. I wish I could there to take one, especially the tape batik one. Would you ever consider doing a live one online? So those of us who would LOVE to watch you do this could? Maybe if I organized a huge bunch of interested artists to send you emails begging and pleading? ;-)
I loved your Textures work .... I loved it. Beautiful and delicate colors .... you can see a thousand different shapes in it... I loved it.
Dear Sandy,
Beautiful work! Thank you for sharing the info on interesting media. I want to explore new tools.
Kind regards, Sadami
This has a ghostly feel to it as if I'm looking into somewhere that is veiled. I like it a lot.
I had considered foam core too as a support after using a piece as a temporary board to complete some washes on one of my fish prints. The resulting pattern left behind could become a piece in its own right with a bit of work.
