Digital Print Mixed Media

This piece was inspired by plants that I photographed while visiting New Zealand a couple of years ago. The digital print on the top has been maniputlated in Photoshop. Arial paper is coated with gel media and sand. When that is dry it is coated with inkAID white matte precoat. The paper is dried overnight and then printed using a matte paper printer profile. The print is then cut into squares, randomly. Each square is layered with burlap, dyed canvas, dyed cheesecloth and fiberglass screen. This assemblage is attached to the screen with large stitching for hanging.
