Theorem & Proof.

When Joey moved into his new office, he requested a painting for the large blank wall above his desk. Well it took many months of procrastination, but the canvas is finally finished. :)

It’s a mixed media piece of book pages, papers, tissues, gouache, acrylic, watercolour, ink and stamps (foam, rubber and homemade), and some glue for good measure. The formulae on the canvas are actually particular to the work that Joey does, just to add a personal touch to the piece. The piece has a bit of a texture to it, worked in through multiple layers of papers and it’s got a lovely golden-copper sheen to it, which unfortunately does not show in the photo.

The canvas measures 30×20-inches, without any visible staples, and the work wraps to the back of the canvas, which means as soon as I attach the cord to the back, he’ll be able to take it into work and hang it without any need of a frame.

Another WIP (work in progress) done. ;)
