About This Item
"Once back in my studio, a year of painting begins. With a stylus and Wacom tablet, I paint on the computer in Illustrator. Working only with flat areas of colour (CMYK) and no tone, I "cut out" colour shapes with the stylus, arranging them on different layers, creating a collage. In fact, I first began working this way years ago (before developing my computer skills) by cutting out sheets of coloured paper with scissors, similar to the way Matisse created his paper cut-outs. Matisse described it as "drawing with colour". The paintings end up as digital files; vector images which can be reduced or enlarged to any size. Therefore there is no scanning, the files can be printed directly from the computer onto a mould-made paper, using a flat-bed UV inkjet printer. The images give a narrative to the book." [artist statement]. Tight, bright, and unmarred. Quarterbound, grey cloth spine, printed color paper wrappers, matching archival case; loose sheets in cloth covered archival portfolio. fo (22"x16" and 22"x30"). Illus. (color plates). Numbered limited edition of 5 copies [N.B. Only two copies have been or will be printed. The other copy is in a private collection]. Delux includes full suite of unbound prints. Signed by the artist.
