Original Painted Paper Collage: Summer in the Desert
Summer in the Desert is an original painted paper collage artwork on wood cradled panel. No frame is needed. It is wired and ready to hang. What is a painted paper collage? Cecelia starts by collecting papers such as book pages, music sheets, maps, brochures and letters. The next step is the really fun part, Cecelia uses acrylic paints, stencils, stamps and a Geli Plate to paint and make prints on the papers. This results in interesting and unusual colors and textures. After the papers dry Cecelia paints an underpainting of a desert scene and then starts ripping and tearing those fun papers and gluing them on top of the underpainting. Once this step is done and dry Cecelia then coats the entire artwork with a layer of resin. The resin creates a hard glossy coating that protects the collage and makes a shiny, glossy surface. This process is very unpredictable, especially on top of the layers of paper and may not be completely smooth, but that is ok, it makes it even more interesting to look at!
