Innovative Mixed Media Art: Abstract Monograms and Textured Paintings | Completed

The AI created the above featured image after a few attempts of not getting it quite right. I then asked it to show me an image of a black woman doing finishing touches to artwork and photography. I give it 8/10 this week.

This week I was able to do finishing touches, like mounting an abstract painting on paper onto canvas and setting up for product photography. I also completed the remaining x15 A5 sized artworks on art board.

It has taken over a year to complete the series of about 30 + mixed media artwork featuring paint skins for texture.  I’m also glad to have come up with the concept of paint skin to create abstract versions of the monogram underpainting.

Making an abstract monogram from sculpted paint skins

I love the interesting mix of textures that the offset mosaic like arrangement in the colleage creates.

The knife-sculpted paint skin allows me to extend the boundaries of the canvas, reminding me of overgrown nails. 💅🏽, which I later trimmed down. This has inspired future works.

What things did you finish off this weekK?
