ABOUT THIS ART PIECE

HOW IT'S MADE
Starting on canvas, black gesso acts as a base for taped lines and patterns, filled in with washes of white gesso. Then, acrylic paint washes are added. Once dried, layers of alcohol markers are used, then paint remover is sprayed to create a colourful effect within the paint.
Elsewhere, digital drawings are created, then transferred and made translucent. Once dried, they are applied onto the canvas and sealed with 3 layers of a gloss varnish.
