This is the latest piece I worked on. in order to create the certain depth that I wanted I painted on an old storm window. This piece was painted from both the front and also the back. In the front in order to create the illusion of waves rushing from the image it was created by using corrugated cardboard. splitting it down the middle and then painting it in acrylic paint and then sealing it with a gloss medium. The window was also painted in acrylic. The interesting thing for this type of work is how that a light shines through it. it causes the paint to glow to an extreme measure. This effect is similar to stained glass. The difference is of course the cloudiness from using paints.
