Pour, Drip etc by Dom Chastney

These are paintings primarily made by pouring liquid paint (acrylic, powder pigment paint, oil paint) and moving the canvas; elevating and rotating it to create drip patterns. Large, un-stretched, un-primed pieces of canvas are laid on the floor- I walk over them, scuffing/rubbing paint, charcoal and pastels into the surface. I work with repeated gestures and marks- dots and dabs, slashes, spatters and swipes, some derived from letters or symbols. I might print paint using bubble wrap and other textured surfaces.
