Today's post follows an artwork of mine as it goes thru its stages toward resolution.

| Above: My paint-stained Abstract Composition Backbones Mask 1 s864, now cut free from its original 6" x 6" frame, is placed on a new substrate and from it extends an ultra-narrow artist's masking tape. Under the roll of tape lies a small sponge-top paint applicator that's just been used to add pale pink acrylic paint all along the area around the tape. Below: So the starting print can be seen, the tape has been removed and the mask has been slightly moved.  |
Below: As I continue repeating the same type of paint additions, I rotate the substrate and eventually bring in another paint-stained mask, Abstract Composition Backbones Mask 3 s866. It too has been cut from its original 6" x 6" frame:
Below: Now the substrate looks like this:
The next photo shows more development --
Below: Now I bring out Abstract Composition Backbone Mask 4 s867, which has been further customized -- not only removed from its original frame but also cut into two unequal halves....
And I change from pink acrylic paint to blue --
Below: I start to add a darker pink and darker blue, still using the small sponge-tipped applicator thru my masks....
Finally --
The photo above shows the finished piece. By the time I've reached this point, I've used all four of the masks.
Abstract Composition Backbones Masks 1, 2, 3 and 4 look like this --
