First few layers on New Years Day
A blue grey base coat. Then taped. Then turquoise above, 2 greens below. Some yellow powder pigment dusted over the bottom half. Random diagonal marks with the squeegee edge. Removed tape. More tomorrow.
Good start to 2016 🙂

Just finished this diptych
2 canvases each 80 x 100cm so the whole piece is 80 x 200cm
Thinking of making the same idea on canvases at least twice the size

qualia
my qualia of turquoise
“Uses of the Term ‘Qualia’
(1) Qualia as phenomenal character. Consider your visual experience as you stare at a bright turquoise color patch in a paint store. There is something it is like for you subjectively to undergo that experience.”
5 canvases
4 @ 100 cm x 80cm
1 @ 100 cm x 120cm
A diptych and a triptych
Or possibly a quintych
A strange starting point today, prompted to look up the word ‘qualia’ by a friends post on facebook, an investigation in paint followed!
