Dragon ladies in the making... pursuing the wire screening avenue!

This week in the Eastern Townships, I built the foundation for two additional paintings on so called "dragon ladies"...

It will be interesting to see how these women will be transformed into dragons! ;-)

African woman II final ... the idea of building a woman with wire screening and cotton strings!

I finished this project with the idea of oscillating between painting and sculpting...

... the effect is interesting, so it's definitely an avenue I want to pursue...

African woman II... the basis for another deconstruction experiment!

Over the last week or so, I established the foundation for another deconstruction project, but this time using the body...

As usual, I push realism to a certain extent before going for a "free fall" artistically!

"Sea of love"...a wink at street art!

I started this one a couple of weeks ago with the intent of producing a companion painting for a previous painting of mine called "color my world"...

Although I have no intention to use spray paint in the near future, I admire the look of street art immensely. Using my own techniques, I used this experiment to open the door to a stream of works with the esthetics of street art in mind...
