Process Images.
Adding and erasing media, veils of media create obscured objects.
Scratching the surface of the metal support creates bouncing light.
Adding three-dimensional media to add surface texture, against the flatness.
Close-ups of the surface and sanding and erasing the surface of the object.

Mixed media on a 50 x 40 cm copper support.
Reflection.
I tried to create a rhythm over the surface with paint. I had Ryman in mind with his process of dancing the textures over the surface. Mine is of a more varied and layered composition.
The thin metal copper plate support is heavy with surface texture.
These textures have underlying pops of copper glints (erasure by sanding), creating harmony across the surface.
In a picture with a dancing, rhythmic picture plane, the unclear shapes are cut off intentionally by the picture edge to promote tension.
Copper glints peep through the picture plane from erasure by sanding, intriguing the viewer.
The objects are painted (the scissors), and the object ( the copper/metal support) is usually made into scissors.
