An exploration of graphite & saltwater #5

Living on the coast, I love incorporating organic material from my environment into my work. One day in February, I took a big bucket down to the beach and scooped up as much seawater as I could carry home. When I added it to my work, I loved what it did to materials I was already using. When mixed with pigments or paint, the saltwater created little rivulets. You can see the effect if you look closely at the hard edges in this piece.  DETAILS Artwork is 8 x .75 x 10"  This study was created on stretched cotton-muslin fabric using saltwater, graphite, acrylic paint, rock salt and coffee. The painting is framed in white oak and sprayed with a non-toxic fixative. The study number, year and materials used are written on the back. The piece comes signed and ready to hang.
