David King Studio: Experimental Abstractions

Continuing with heavy experimentation lately I did something else totally new to me. I did a series of small acrylic/collage abstracts. I decided to choose a theme, "rust". I printed out some photos I've taken of rusty metal panels and sealed them. I used gel medium to affix pieces of the rust photos to the canvas paper surface. I also added some collaged text from old magazines. I decided to keep the colors simple and consistent between the four pieces with the primary color being red. I also added some interest in the form of some lines and shapes using paint markers as well as added a small amount of drips and splatters. Since these are small and on paper I'm able to offer them for a more affordable price than my regular acrylic paintings.
