ASSINIBOINE SUNBURST

“I am seeking. I am striving. I am in it with all my heart.” Vincent van Gogh “Creativity takes courage.” Henri Matisse A very cold, wet day in the mountains. I decide to create an image with lots of colour, and pressed into the colour some parchment paper, bubble wrap, plastic wrap and ziplock bag. I scrunch each up, then spread them out over the painted surface. I then put books on top to really press in the layers. After about 45 minutes, I peel off the layers. I now have this interesting textured surface. Stepping back, I imagine Mt. Assiniboine in the center of the image. I do a quick sketch with a light pen, then use a # 8 brush loaded with sepia. Assiniboine Sunburst is created. I’d be interested to hear if you like this image or not. For Sale-13" x 18" undframed on watercolour paper. $175 Enjoy the journey.
