Ten of my textured wax paper paintings are on display at the Orenco Station New Seasons Market during the month of October. I am pleased with how they look against the orange walls in the store’s cafe area.
These paintings were created with very little brush work and no preliminary drawings. I applied thick splotches of watercolor paint to paper primed with matte medium, and then pressed sheets of kitchen wax paper into the paint. The resulting textures and colors inspired the creation of these landscapes, which I named after trees and parks in the Orenco Station neighborhood of Hillsboro.
