Restricted Palette


Canvas Stretcher bar, Raw Canvas, Colored Ink, Various lengths of Tubing, Rags

Top canvas bar-2'x2'
Base canvas bar-3'x3'

The objective is to experiment with methods of applying marks. In positioning myself behind the canvas I eliminate the control one maintains while painting. I am both lacking sight, and the use of my hands. Different lengths of tubing also influence the probability of making certain color marks on the canvas. Feeding ink through the tubing to saturate the rags should provide a consistent supply of ink to dictate the duration of the performance.
