Exploration of scale

         

 

Acrylic on rice paper

 

These were painted as grounds and pieces to be torn up. It is very interesting how scale and framing transforms what we see. The pieces are small (only a few inches wide), but could be seen as large canvases. Examining them close up also alerts me to the nice unintentional effects at the edges of the paint, which I’d like to repeat.
