Black-eyed Susan
Black-eyed Susan
7.5"x 9" x .5"
Mixed media- acrylic paint on wood burned oak board.
This engraved painting was inspired by a Black-eyed Susan flower I harvested from my summer garden.
My process began by layering gesso on oak boards. On this clean white surface, I made an observational drawing of the arrangement. Then, using a wood burner, I engraved the bouquet into the board and sanded it to create a clean surface to paint on. Next, I brought the image to life with acrylic paint and colored pencil. My final step was to scratch fine details into the painting with an x-acto knife.
All of my paintings are finished with an archival varnish to ensure longevity.
I recommend putting the painting in a space without direct sunlight to ensure color preservation.
