Erik Jones / Paragon / 2012
This is for my fine art site:
[link]You can see process pics of it on my Ink & Collar tumblr:
[link] This was an experiment using 18”x24” clear overlay film. There were 6 separate sheets used to create one piece (Inspired by stacked layers in Photoshop). Each layer had something different on it. There are 2 line layers, a blue layer, a yellow/green layer which lays on top of the face, a black/pink/blue/yellow drippy line layer, and a color rub layer (colored smudges).
These layers incorporate a mixture of mediums including acrylic, water-soluble wax pastel and archival inkjet ink.
I was using a few different methods of getting the ink on the sheets. The blue was printed on a large inject printer while other smudges and thin lines where done with acrylic and wax pastel
Just loving your experiments here. Nevermind
Sorry this is turning out to be quite a lengthy comment! Interesting combination of the word paragon and the image you've created. I'm not sure why I love it but I do!
By that mean it can only do so much on top of it,
and there are only a few things I have found, so far, that will even make a mark on it.
Pretty tricky stuff.
I'm kinda developing methods as I go a long.
The nice thing about my "style" is that mistakes are totally fine,
so it make experimenting very fun.
Yes you can by it at any art store. The larges Ive found so far is only 18"x24". I want much bigger.
I'm sure I can find it in a roll but I NEED it completely flat...tricky stuff.
Anyway thanks for the heads up about the clear film. Will definitely check it out next I'm in.
