These are two paintings by Peter Krauskopf. He uses a broad brush or palette knife to create large areas of colour. His paintings consist of an old picture which has been discarded, and over paints them to produce something new. Using layers he managed to bring together the old and the new. I like these painting because of their metallic, colourfull and dense look to them.
In my own work I am interested in layering yarns, bringing together the traditional technique of hand weaving with contemporary materials.
