20x16 torn paper collage on wrapped canvas started yesterday (see the first phase posted below) then finished up today. Using various heavy paper magazines, colored pieces were torn by hand and applied with matte medium both sides. When totally dry I will varnish with gloss medium and sign it.
Most of the elephant was done yesterday in about 1.5 hours, although with this work in progress, I had to go back and correct values today. You can see the black marker lines on the gessoed canvas where I drew background and foreground grasses. This work is now SOLD.
