| ABOUT ME |
Darron J Chadwick
b.1965
Medium : 2-D Mixed-Media
The paintings within my current Series combine my love for ancient architecture and lost civilizations. These images are created using a variety of mediums. First, a photo emulsion transfer is applied as the background covered by a thick coat of gel medium as to insure the image is sealed into the paper. I then overlap and combine gradual layers of translucent acrylic color to create the visual illusion of depth. Next, using various techniques of drawing, painting and calligraphy I create the look of an ancient language. Architectural elements and repetitive geometric symbols along with simulated old-world calligraphic text are applied to create interest. The semi-matte, textured surface of each piece is then finished by adding airbrushed shadows and a high-gloss clear coat that further enhance the illusion of depth and space.
