CSI, SVU Update

Creativity Scene Investigation, Special Ventures Unit
Update 2/28/17

Evidence of tampering with evidence


When Vova and Vova II were cut up, with only scraps left behind, the scraps were taken and held as evidence by CSI, SVU.

Now two of those scraps have been reported in a new piece of work—a handmade greeting card, that arrived in Goffstown, NH, by post:

Authorities are investigating this new development.

What to Do?

where I left off

What to do, what to do?

What happens if I add pattern/texture with stencil and spray paint?

Pretty cool.

What happens if I use a sponge roller to veil the stenciling, and then scribble in it with a tooling stylus?

How 'bout some complementary color? Some drips?

How 'bout I let this percolate overnight?

Lining Things Up

Moseyed into my studio not knowing what or if I would add to Vova II. Stayed in a quiet place of pause until collage came to mind.

I sifted through my handpainted collage papers and found two that called out to me. Headed for my paper trimmer to cut thin strips, but stopped. Tore my strips instead. Savored the satisfying feeling of spreading matte medium, placing my strips, pressing them down, and further securing them with more medium.

Then I did stop. I think this piece needs to stay simple. It's part of a possible project where less-is-more may be key.

Vova Has Company

I start a piece today that has the working title Vova II.

Brush on color in a free and easy manner to begin. Mix colors on my palette and on the painting itself. Then, once the base colors dry, play with a stencil and spray paint.

Having fun, having fun.
