"Fluctuations" ~ Mixed Media Textured Abstract with Epoxy Resin Glaze Painting by Texas Daily Painter Nancy Standlee

"Fluctuation" 11056

15x8 x 1.75"

Mixed Media Abstract Painting with Texture, Prepared Tyvek and Copper

Covered with Epoxy Resin Glaze

I think this had some Venetian Plaster for texture on MDF board, a copper strip, and painted with metallic colors and prepared Tyvek paper collage.

This painting can be seen at the Hood County Library in Granbury TX for the LGAA show until October. I did this one as a demo for some friends and it was between Carol workshops; however, I have just now added the resin glaze and the cradle.

"IN THE GROOVE"

If I were Donald Trump, I would have said "You're fired" to me.
THis is a complex painting with two parts, separated by a thin gap, covered with clear resin, and mounted on a larger board.

The last step in assembly of this piece is to glue the two painting panels on to the mounting board.  I use Gorilla glue for this process.

I applied the glue, carefully positioned the two pieces, and put something heavy on each piece.  I KNOW that as Gorilla glue creates the bond, it bubbles and expands a bit.

You have to keep a close eye on your painting to make sure it stays where you want it.  Even with weight on it, it can move.

After I had it all weighted down, I went to check my email FOR JUST A FEW MINUTES.  (Here's where I fire myself)  I got too involved reading email, and when I came back to check this painting, both the top and bottom parts had moved 1/2 inch to the right and were now immovable.

I couldn't BELIEVE it.  I tried to reposition them, but it was no use.  The only solution was to cut 1/2 inch off the wider side.  This is not easy to do with a ancient radial arm saw.

I was oh so careful in measuring and cutting off that 1/2 inch. I had the resin coated parts wrapped in plastic wrap to protect them.  Fortunately, it turned out great.  What makes me mad is that I KNOW BETTER!!
