Faure - Op. 11 - Cantique de Jean Racine
I like the blue and gold tones in this abstract collage painting, which is made of scraps of archival matt board, gold ribbon, cloth and acrylics.
As usual I used Matte Medium (Liquitex) as my archival glue.
It's glued on a large wooden board.
I spray-painted an old frame and the result is quite spectacular.
Unfortunately it's hard to photograph, due to the shiny gold.
At the left top I glued a piece of cloth (gold) to break the flatness of this collage.
It was quite an eye catcher on my show in May last year.
Let me know what you think of this unusual collage!

Wouldn't it do great as a poster in
the
city at night!?!

animated photo!)
