Mixed Media.

This print really is a mix of different media. The original background with the honeycomb shapes used small laser cut wooden shapes pressed into the painted gelatin plate. Then came another layer of acrylic paint with some masks for the circles, followed by 4 separate Gocco screens for the bees and the hives. After that I rolled paint onto some pressed foliage and applied that to the lower edge of the paper. Finally a touch of water colour to the striped bodies of the bees. Oh and I forgot, a piece of textured wallpaper adhered to a cardboard plate was also pressed into the painted gelatin at one stage, although the resulting marks are a little hard to see. Mixed Media indeed!
