I love the creative freedom I am finding with the ENCODE series. Texture and etching and glass inlay and paint are all techniques I can use to create the imagery I can envision. And thinking as larger groupings means I don’t have to ‘say it all’ in each piece. Different elements and motifs can be developed in individual panels to help tell the bigger story.
I love paint on concrete. I always notice paint in parking garages and street markings. Color catches my eye and gives me a jolt of happy. But I also love the elemental, rawness of unpainted sanded texture. I’m thinking I’ll have more individual panels left unpainted to mix in with painted pieces.
