My multi-layered paintings are made of several sheets of collaged and painted plastic. 1st I create a painting on canvas that is compositionally complete and mount it on a metal backed acrylic sheet. I take several of my pictures with a digital camera. Some images are found and scanned. I manipulate the color, size and texture of these images and print them on a clear film. I then transfer these to the subsequent sheets of acrylic, adding more paint and drawing around them. When assembled, the colors and images composite with those above and below.
