Detailing...

More progress this week and I feel I am now reaching that almost-finished stage. As these pieces are not pre-planned, I regularly sit back and contemplate the where-to-next. During my contemplations I will list the ideas and progresses that I feel will take the piece further, probably three or four each time. Sometimes I find that only two or maybe three are used; some ideas just don't seem to be appropriate after the others have been done. I like being totally involved and challenged until the end by working this way. I am incapable of following a pre-determined plan, recipe or pattern. Am I alone in this!

I wanted to add some detail to the lower portion so masked off the area. Looks a bit rough but it worked! I brushed and scrapped textile paint/pigment on to plastic, then turned it over and printed (mono-printing) over the masked area.

Here it is with the masking removed.

Small detail. Above is the left side.
