This is a mixed media painting using acrylic paint and paper collage. The collage pieces I use are cut or torn from original monoprints, other printed material, newspapers and sometimes textile fragments. I make the acrylic monoprints in batches without any idea of what they may be used for. The selected materials are assembled to form a semi-abstract image usually on a painted background. All of my work is highly coloured and the images start with a colour or shape of an object. The composition is not defined at the beginning but arises, as I work with various prints and papers. The inspiration for this painting came from a bridge in Tavira, a town in southern Portugal. The process is quite time consuming and sometimes I spend some time searching for the perfect piece of paper to finish the collage. The finished work is provided in a white mount ready for framing.
