Chuck Webster - Paper Variable 2011
Edition 9 of 25
Chuck Webster
Untitled, 2011
Stenciled and free-hand pigmented pulp painting on cotton base
14 x 11 inches
Dieu Donné is pleased to announce a new edition by Chuck Webster of 25 variable artworks in handmade paper as part of the 2011 Paper Variables program.
For this project, Workspace Residency artist Chuck Webster returned to Dieu Donné’s studios to work in the wet process. This time the artist translated his fantastical imagery into handmade paper by using an alternating set of stencils and an open approach to color. Each wet sheet was approached with a variant in stencil layout and pigmented pulps to create the variable edition of 25. After the wet process, the artist went back to each sheet, working in dry processes and continuing his endless delight in color, form and drawing.
