The Mechanics of Flight – 24 x 24 x 1.5, acrylic and gold leaf on 24 x 24 x 1.5 birch panel, framed in gold tipped, black floater frame

Lines scratched into wet paint become a natural grid for gold leaf application. The fragments appear to float and fly from the beating wings. See a video of the work in progress. https://www.instagram.com/p/BZyrOTIDwg_/?hl=en&taken-by=deb_mccarroll
