WAX COLLECTION
HARD WAX REIMAGINED
& WALLPAPER*
Original Artwork
Mixed Media
Canvas 100 x 100 cm
This is a large scale reconstruction and blend of two previous artworks, "Hard Wax" and "Hard Wax Reimagined"
Each centimetre of both paintings was precisely scanned to realistically represent texture of the paint. However, pencil and ink sections are re-drawn by hand.
* This artwork composes into seamless pattern. Contact me if you would like to use this design for printed wallpaper.
