Largest canvas collage painting to date



"Seascape II"


(Detail)

I started working on a 40 x 30 inch canvas today. I have rough sketches for a seascape image that will incorporate handmade recycled cast paper, coconut fiber and acrylic paints. I did have to purchase bigger brushes for the bigger canvas. The recycled cast paper was manipulated while still wet to create texture and depth.

Felt it might be interesting to get comments on the work at various stages, so I posted updated images on Facebook. If you have are into Facebook you can search for Jay West. I think the photos are available to the public. If not let me know as I'm no pro with FB...yet.

The above image is the finished piece, plus a detail photo. "Seascape II" will be on display and for sale at the group show "Big Island Style" at Wailoa Center during the month of September.

Photo Canvas Collage prints are the ideal way to display lots of your stunning images without buying masses of bulky picture frames or cluttering up the house. With the use of smartphones and readily available digital cameras, we have become a nation of amateur photographers, using Instagram to capture our favourite moments. Out of this we now have some incredible photographs we are sure to treasure forever; the problem is there are just too many of them, making the task almost impossible when
choosing images to display in our homes
