"Tossed", monotype.
Why Monotypes?
To enable greater spontaneity in my abstract creations, I often use a monotype printing process. This allows me to move a lot of color quickly, so that I can execute my compositions with great freedom. Then comes the sometimes serendipitous interaction of ink on wetted paper during the actual printing process.
Oil Paint and Cold Wax
For the same reason, moving a lot of pigment quickly in order to enhance spontaneity, I have recently begun a new technique; mixing oil paint with cold wax resins. Building layers I can cover surfaces rapidily, paint, scratch and gouge, adding and subtracting, forming deep textures and accenting the surfaces of my compositions.
