Gilded Charcoal & Rose Wash

Description

• Visual Dispersion (Sedimentary): The charcoal and rose shapes exhibit “Sedimentary Pigment Pooling.” As the water evaporated, the heavier pigment particles settled into the texture of the paper, creating dark, saturated “shorelines” at the edges of the shapes while leaving the centers more transparent.

• Light Dispersion (Granular): The gold accents show “Granular Sparkle Dispersion.” Instead of a solid foil, the metallic element is dispersed as fine, glittering dust within certain shapes, mimicking the look of natural mineral inclusions like pyrite in stone.

• Linear Dispersion (Trajectory): The gold wires exhibit “Linear Trajectory Dispersion.” These lines act as independent paths that guide the eye across the canvas. They don’t outline the shapes; they disperse energy through them, creating a rhythmic, web-like overlay.
