In my last post, Little Paintings<\/span><\/a>, I shared how I painted small oil and cold wax paintings on Arches Oil Paper by taping small squares of the paper to a large piece of newsprint or butcher paper. I briefly mentioned how I remove the tape . . . . this post is what I do with the tape that I removed.<\/p>\n

Removing tape from Arches Oil Paper.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Over the past couple of years, I have saved and collected all of the pieces of tape I have removed from the little taped down paintings. (Do you think I’m a bit compulsive? Or obsessive?)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I am always amazed by the beautiful little abstract paintings on the pieces of tape, sometimes even wishing I could paint a larger painting using the pieces of tape as inspiration. . . . and then inspiration struck. What if I used the strips of tape to create an abstract painting? I like stripes, I like color, I like abstract, and I like recycling and reuse. I started auditioning the strips of tape. Before too long, I had a pleasing arrangement and composition and I started gluing down the strips.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For my first piece, I mounted the tape pieces onto a 4×10 inch cradled panel.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And hung it in our brightly colored kitchen at the House of Color in Astoria.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

By then I was smitten so I forged ahead and taped down strips of color onto four 6×6-inch cradled panels.<\/p>\n
