Zak Sabbath said...: @helm

nope, what I did was:

1. I painted a bunch of geometric shapes on unprimed (white) paper

2. then painted -over- everything I just painted in opaque black (completely covering up the painting,--so it's an all black painting but it's thick enough that it still leaves some impasto)

3. then I painted over the whole thing with a thin white wash--this wash clung to the outlines of the original geometric patterns, making the "archaelogical"-looking shapes.

4. Then I painted in the black and green around that.; June 15, 2011 at 11:14 AM
