Rock Layers

While visiting main, and hiking in Acadia, I came across some of the most beautiful layered rocks. These rocks were the inspiration for a few paintings. The effect was created in an unusual way. When I am finished painting for the day, if there is any paint (melted wax and pigment) left over on my palette, I don’t like to see it go to waste. I will mop up the excess paint with tissue paper and save it to use in other projects. I gathered these papers, crumpled them up, and melted them into the substrate. This painting is a wonderful remembrance of a magnificent trip.
