Hand Painted Paper Collage #3

Hand Painted Paper Collage #3 
11” x 14” | Mixed Media on Paper

This small-scale mixed media work transforms fragments into a larger visual rhythm. Arranged in a precise grid, each square contains its own unique combination of color, texture, and mark-making, creating a collection of moments that feel both independent and interconnected.

Vivid passages of pink, turquoise, deep green, and ochre move across the surface like memories, snapshots, or pieces of a larger story. The structured composition brings a sense of order, while the expressive layers within each square retain an element of spontaneity and discovery.

Balancing repetition with variation, the piece invites viewers to move from one section to the next, finding new relationships, patterns, and unexpected connections along the way. It is a celebration of process, color, and the beauty that emerges when individual fragments come together to form a cohesive whole.

Because of its intimate scale, the work rewards close viewing, revealing subtle textures and details that might otherwise go unnoticed.
