“Reinterpreting Autumn” — An Original Collage Painting — (Sold)
Reinterpreting Autumn — An Original Collage Painting by Amy Solovay
Media: Acrylic Painting, Collage
Dimensions: 9″ x 12″
This piece of collage art is made from a variety of original miniature spin paintings; each one was individually hand-painted. I collaged the pieces together on a piece of plain white Strathmore Bristol board to form the final composition you see here.
My background as a textile designer is definitely evident when you look at this piece; I am fascinated with patterns that repeat. However this piece is unlike any of my fabric designs considering that none of the elements are actually the same; the spirals are similar to each other yet completely different. The color palette was inspired by various upholstery fabric samples in my collection, and the colors are very interior-design-friendly.
