New Collage - "Sticker Bomb Collage"

New Collage -
"Sticker Bomb Collage"

ORIGINAL AVAILABLE

New sticker bomb collage called "Sticker Bomb Collage" - just recently finished this collage in a sticker bomb style...

The piece was created using off-cuts of stickers I'd used for the sticker montages on some Tobacco Tins I was creating.

I didn't want to waste the excess that was trimmed off so I started layering the stickers up on a piece of board to create an abstract-expressionist-style collage from the off-cuts.

The piece measures 40cm x 50cm and is also framed in a black aluminium frame that nicely off-sets the colours and the textures of the stickers in the montage...

Hope you enjoyed this week's piece...

There will be another new piece posted here within the next week or so!

New Painting -
"Blue, Black and Red Square Painting"

Blue, Black and Red Square Painting by Michael Carlton Artist Art 2022

New painting called "Blue, Black and Red Square Painting"

The painting features a series of geometrically-arranged squares, rectangles and stripes in a somewhat Mondrian-style:

The painting is on 9mm deep MDF wood and uses a combination of acrylic, emulsion and metallic paint:

Each of the shapes is also outlined using chalk marker pen which highlights the edge of the shape and also has the effect of making the ink look like it's cutting into the surface of the painting:

The surface of the painting is also covered with a gloss varnish finish which give it a polished sheen that gives reflections under the light:

New Ink Drawing - "Stone Rabbit"

New ink abstract-style ink drawing called "Stone Rabbit"...

I started this piece I think nearly 5 years ago and have only just got round to finally finishing it :D

I called it Stone Rabbit because to me it looks like there's the shape of a rabbit encased in stone just left of the middle of the picture...

Hope you like the new piece - there will be more posted soon both here on the blog and also on social media.

New Brush-Wipe Style Painting - "White Haze on Electric Blue" by Michael Carlton

10/23/2020

New Brush-Wipe Style Painting -
"White Haze on Electric Blue"

ORIGINAL AVAILABLE

New Brush-Wipe Style painting I finished recently - it's a monochrome-white painting on a metallic-blue background and has quite a Mark Rothko feel to it...

Often with this style of painting I don't use a border but for this particular piece I wanted a bold outline to complement and contrast the hazy nature of the main body of the piece.

This painting is part of a new series of pieces I've been working on since moving to a new studio in Duivendrecht. Most of the paintings in the series have been on wood (including this one) as it's a new medium I'm experimenting with...

I'll be posting more paintings from the new series here on the blog and on my Social Media pages if you'd like to see the new pieces as they're released...

All the new pieces will also be available for sale in the Online Shop - so if you see one you like then click on the link in the post and it will take you directly to the right page in the shop.

Hope you enjoyed the new piece - comments and feedback as always are welcome below!

I should hopefully be able to post another new piece again early sometime week...

Till then!

Michael

- "Brush-Wipe Style Square"

ORIGINAL AVAILABLE

Brush-Wipe Style Painting by Michael Carlton

Just finished a new acrylic painting in the Brush-Wipe Style that's a part of a collection of 10 or so pieces created to inaugurate my move to a new studio in Duivendrecht.

It's a combination of loosely applied acrylic paints that creates a hazy, etheric feel. I've also mixed in some metallic gold paint too which gives an eye-catching glimmer when viewed from certain angles...

The painting is on 9mm thick mdf board and measures 20cm x 20cm

I hope you like the new piece and as always comments are welcome below!

There will be more from the collection released soon and as usual I'll be posting them on my Social Media pages as soon as they're ready... ;)

Speak soon,
