An image from direct working process imagination. No pre-conception - just unfolding movement of image in the moments of being at work on this.


Initially a little coloured wax was swiped with the iron onto bare 19mm thick MDF board. Then the wire brush in the Low-heat Stylus was used to add further colours, blend and form lines. If clean colour was wanted in areas where wax already rested then a scribing tool was used to remove that colour back to the supprt surface. Hot air was used gently to melt and fuse the developing forms and through this some layers of colour combined, forming new colours revealed by the process. The title "exit the clowns of greed" relates to aspects of great changes we are encountering in these early years of the third millenium.
