The process for creating these sculpted pieces: A piece of fabric (polyester works well) is drenched in laytex paint which acts as a barrier and adheres the fabric to a canvas. The larger the piece of fabric, the more dynamic the shape becomes. The wet fabric is manipulated around to create peaks and valleys until an interesting shape and texture emerges. Once it is dry, I paint it with oils to create variations in one or more colors.

Another piece of mine is titled Silver and Gold (2023-06) but I painted over that one and it became "Enjoy Your Bath" so this one was re-titled Silver and Gold. The two "silver" pieces were made around the same time.
