Paint


In previous pieces I had wished I’d used paint or experimented more with it so I decided to use paint on a severed section of a log that I found. 





This was incredibly interesting on its own, as the relationship between the wood grain and the saw marks had created an intriguing effect and when I added paint to it, the paint highlighted this. However, to me, paint felt very static and just didn’t create the effect I was looking for. Although this didn’t end in the way I’d hoped and essentially ruined an already beautiful object, I felt that this was a worthwhile endeavor as it gave me direction for the next piece.
