My dream trampoline


Six month ago I stretched a canvas across the old trampoline and primed it on one side.
Despite my best intentions to make a large oil painting, I left it to the elements and watched it slowly deteriorate.





Recently, I took the canvas off the frame, cut it into 4 pieces and re-stretched them on four 30"by 36" frames. The result is a dreamlike, ghostly and intriguing set of images on the side that hadn't been exposed to the light.







Will try this again and try some blue pigment on the hidden side of the canvas.
