Untitled . 2024
Paintings made with animal hide (sheep, goat). Surfaces made with animal gelatine (bovine, rabbit). Certain of the paintings done in distemper. (Have I heard the word this way before?) Distempered surfaces are easily marked, and cannot be washed down. Beaux is finishing, has been here all day, is telling me about the paintings. The glue is usually prepared with rabbit skin, sometimes cow. But rabbit is too sticky for this purpose.
