Taos Serendipity #4: Adobe House

Oil marbleized watercolor paper on Japanese oil paper. 14×11 matted to 18×14. Using a marbleizing process, mixing oil paint and turpenoid, I drop paint on a pan of water. Then, swirl it and lift the pattern with a piece of heavy watercolor paper. Pressing those pages to make them flat, I then cut patterns of the paper to make my image using light and shadow to determine the shapes, as well as the actual shapes and forms of the object I am portraying. All of this is applied to Japanese handmade paper to form an impression of the feelings and scenes I've encountered.
