Oversized Geologic Abstract Painting, "Seductive Sediment" © Carol Nelson Fine Art

"Seductive Sediment", 60 x 40, by Carol Nelson

This painting is taller than I am, so it was a bit of a struggle for me to handle.  I found the inspiration for this painting in a slab of rock that I purchased at a gem and mineral show.
The pattern and colors were so bold, I just knew I had to paint it.

What you can't see very well in the photographs are the heavy texture, the sparkling glass and mica chips, even the 50,000 year old fossilized fish.

Metals and Mixed Media Contemporary Abstract, "Metalworks" © Carol Nelson Fine Art

"Metalworks" 10x10 by Carol Nelson

I had to do this painting as an example for my Metals and Mixed Media class next week in Phoenix. It has aluminum wire pounded into a random design, and some metal washers, in the central goldish stripe. These were covered with aluminum foil pressed around each object, and then antiqued with Golden High Flow Sepia. I love that paint for antiquing.

The orange foil was embossed with a swirl design before painting with Golden Fluids: Quinacridone Nickel Azo Gold and Transparent Red Oxide.

 There is also some uncolored aluminum foil that was antiqued with Golden Fluid Carbon Black. The two fancy patterned papers were purchased at an art supply store.
