Oversized Geologic Abstract Painting, "Seductive Sediment" © Carol Nelson Fine Art

 

"Seductive Sediment", 60 x 40, by Carol Nelson

This painting is taller than I am, so it was a bit of a struggle for me to handle.  I found the inspiration for this painting in a slab of rock that I purchased at a gem and mineral show.
The pattern and colors were so bold, I just knew I had to paint it.

What you can't see very well in the photographs are the heavy texture, the sparkling glass and mica chips, even the 50,000 year old fossilized fish.

Mixed Media Geologic Abstract "Petroglyphs", © Carol Nelson Fine Art

 

"Petroglyphs" , 24 x 18, by Carol Nelson

This mixed media piece is done in a neutral palette. The earthy brown tones warm up a generally cool gray, black and white palette. I started the painting by layering three kinds of paper on the canvas: brown packing paper, red rosin paper, and textured wallpaper.

Then I added some premixed stucco repair (found in the paint department at Home Depot). I was interested in how the three different papers and the texture medium would absorb the paint. Sometimes you are surprised how a single swish of paint can look so different depending on the absorption of the substrate.
