Continuing with my experiment I wanted to try it out with a mix of tones. Therefore I chose black and white acrylic paint to mix with glue. I didn't want to try a solid grey colour, I wanted to see how the texture would be affected with the change from the dark to light tones. After drying the piece, I could clearly see how the dark tones revealed the cracks created in this piece. The darkness of the paint had cracked to reveal the white page underneath, it shone through. I really liked this particular aspect of the dark tones. The lighter tones unveiled the shattered pieces of paint, the paint that had started to chip off because of the heat off the heat gun. There is such a vary of toneand texture on this page, some of it is delicate and other is brutal. The tones change the way the texture is looked at. The dark pieces brutally show the contrast from dark to light. Whereas the light toned parts subtly show paint breaking away, falling apart to reveal a new layer. I feel that this is revealed all over the page, the tone constantly changes throughout it and so does the texture. Overall I am really happy with this piece, the way the texture has been affected by the change of tone astonishes me. I would definitely like to involve this piece within my final outcome somehow.
