Abstract Watercolor Collage

Description

• Visual Dispersion (Wash): The individual shapes exhibit “Wash Dispersion.” The color isn’t solid; it’s a watery pool of pigment that dries with uneven density (darker edges, lighter centers), showing the natural dispersion of watercolor on paper.

• Color Dispersion (Optical): The overlaps create “Optical Mixing.” The colors disperse into one another visually. A yellow shape over a grey shape creates a greenish-grey tone. This dispersion happens in the eye of the viewer due to the transparency of the medium.

• Edge Dispersion (Wet): The edges of the shapes show “Wet-Edge Dispersion.” They are slightly irregular and have a darker rim where the pigment pooled as the water evaporated, giving them an organic, hand-painted feel.
