So I'm committing to this illustration. I was so impressed with the simplicity of the last piece I have to do it again.
But FIRST... I need more bark material, a full metre.
This was done in 3 phases. First it was spatter-painted in black and a touch of orange, then dried and heat set to fix the paint.
Second step was to wet most of the surface with a spray bottle of water and them throw more, slightly diluted black. It was set deliberately on an angle so the paint would run.
After that dried and was heat set, I re-wet areas and dribbled on walnut water, just enough to stain it again.
So how to use this?...Slices
These pieces will portray a more mature tree trunk.
