Paint meets metal

Grace Under Pressure.  Oil on copper sheet mounted to wood panel, 13" x 9".

This marks a new body of work.  I am lucky to have inspiration for this one.  This started as an experiment on copper sheet.  I wanted to work with the oil medium with a more aqueous approach and started to experiment with diluting the pigment with turpentine.  This process, oil pouring, requires a certain "controlled chaos" approach.  I found that I really had to work with the medium when and how it wanted to work.  I ordered more copper sheets and can't wait to started poring my layers!
