Avis Angelus: Tondo
"Avis Angelus: Tondo"
Acrylic, ink, oil, gold leaf on wood panel, 18" across
I painted this on a round 18" wood panel. First I stained the wood to accentuate it's beautiful grain, and then pressed some large inkblots across the surface. After that, I worked to find images in the random patterns that had been created. The gold sun is a small knot in the wood.
This is a fascinating, meditative process to me, and one that I picked up from Max Ernst via Leonardo Da Vinci.
