Description
The July 9, 2012 Series was approached in an automatism technique I use frequently in drawing and in painting. I taped all five 18 x 24" water color papers in a row at about eye-level. I started from the 1st paper(from left) making random long 1/2 inch rounded brush strokes of thick black ink with circles. I numbered the sheets on the bottom left corner to keep them in order in case some fall due to aggressive brush work. I then started shadowing the black brush strokes with the same 1/2 inch rounded brush dipped in gray acrylic and tempera mix . After, in layers, I added the different colors( gold, brown, sky blue, yellow and red) in order from left to right with each different color. In between the layers of color I used red and black oil paint stick strokes like in an incoherent writing form.
I then laid all the sheets on the floor to air dry for a while the with a bottle of black acrylic paint I started dripping and pouring the paint on the sheets in long lines again from left to right in order from the #1 sheet to the #5 sheet.
Using the same dripping and pouring process I used the white, yellow, orange and blue in order. I signed each sheet with the dates and let them dry for a couple of days.
With a clear semi-gloss spray paint can I generously sprayed the whole surface of the painting to prevent future damage to the painting and to have a fresh paint look to the pieces.
