mikegoedecke:COTTON CANDY61 x 85 InchesArchival Pigment on GlassOriginal Artwork by Mike GoedeckeMike has spent years developing this Photographic/Paint/Digital process he calls PhotoSmelting. Imagery begins as self portrait photography, incorporating layers of colorful substances coating the human form. This evocative imagery is then printed onto clear plastic where the emulsion is lifted from the surface. The floating pigments are then manipulated and repainted. The resulting work is then scanned and digitally relayered with the original photography. The finished pieces capture the energetic memory of the photo while introducing an organic decay that is both haunting and beautiful. -- source link
