Intent was to create a New Yorker cartoon-style window into a particular moment in a parent’s day, complete with a printed cartoon caption below. A circular vignette was cut out of the matte board, providing a window for us to peer into the illustration beneath, which is seen as a captured moment in time. Once painted, the characters and environment were hand cut out of watercolour paper, then separated into varying layers and mounted one in front of the other, thus displaying real depth and shadows. Medium - Collage using acrylic ink on separated cut-paper layers of watercolour paper. Dimensions - 12.25” x 15.25”
