Berlin

Berlin

This work was heavily manipulated in the computer from photographs I took on the streets of Berlin.

It was then printed onto stretched canvas coated with one mm plus of rabbit skin gesso, then glued to MDF and backed with tin foil. I then worked onto the surface with a mixture of watercolour, gouache, egg tempera and oil paint, with much scratching and sanding. Each piece was an original work.Some of this work was sold at turn-berlin gallery, the remainder I attempted to take with me when I left Berlin. A lot was destroyed moving from Berlin to Liverpool as it was very heavy and I only had an ordinary van to move it, and even with two trips many had to be recycled.
