Crystals and Smoke
This is another in the black and white series I described in Dark Angel. A small collection of paintings used with just black and white paint and additions to the medium to create different textures and see how far I could take the paint. Some of the work is a little painstaking, like the mirror chips… I’m so exacting I have to apply them with tweezers. (I hate when the mirrors flip to the non reflective sides) and it just plays into my being Type A or OCD or I don’t know what you call it but… it’s how I am. Trying to make it perfect even though I know there’s no such thing… It’s just that “do your best” thing I was raised with… “Whatever is worth doing at all, is worth doing well”? I suppose I put a lot of pressure on myself living that way but I can’t remember when I didn’t. 🤷♀️
