Patt Scrivener is theThird Place Winner in the Federation of Canadian Artists Landscape Show

I am so excited to announce that I placed third overall in the recent Federation of Canadian Artists Landscape show with Golden Sunset. It is a 16 x 16" gallery wrapped canvas and is for sale.
I textured the canvas to start and then used a combination of acrylic ink and Golden fluid acrylics to build up layers. I used a metallic copper thread at the horizon line and it acted like a resist to hold the ink in.

Strata -Mixed Media Painting by Patt Scrivener

This is the new collage -many layers of built up mediums, fluid acrylics and paper. I have made most of the papers myself even adding coffee grounds to one of them to emulate rock.

Copper Fusion -Mixed Media Abstract

I started this piece by building up textures with gel medium.  I then dropped inks into it and let them run.  The last step is letting go of some areas and defining the focal area.  I added some opaques and black.  It is 16" x 16" painted on a gallery wrapped canvas.  Contact me if yu are interested in purchasing this piece.

Ocean Serenity, Imitating Encaustic with Acrylics

This is a 8"x 8" gallery wrapped canvas that I tried to imitate the look of encaustic and am pleased with the results. I have several layers of gel medium built up and finished it with the soft gloss gel to give it a clouded effect. It has a lot of depth and I love the colours.

Abstracted Realism

Mystic Mountain

Inspired by the rockies and a moody sky this very aboriginal looking woman appeared in my painting.

Deep in Thought

This painting was totally intuitive, as I was splashing some colour onto my canvas I saw this face appear.

Mysterious

Once again this face intuitively appeared out of an abstract I woas doing, check out her eye is was a stamp from Africa that I had put inbefore she appeared, the postmark her pupil with the white of the stamp above it. Her hat is enhanced with cheesecloth.








I tried to be abstract!!
