Tide Marks

Tide Marks

all natural mixed media on board

30 x 30cm

$250 plus postage

this is the view I have 

each day on my morning walk 

looking out over the mudflats 

to the sea

I glued down a piece of silk noil

over 2/3rds of the board

and then applied starch paste over most of it

and scratched into it

 milk paint has been applied and then ink

which was washed off

after it had thoroughly dried

I have added wax and dry pigment

This is the piece I entered into the local art prize

I did not win anything

and it is likely I will be bringing it home 

but I am good with that

we are living in a fully furnished apartment

and the art is not to my taste
