Process of Screenshot #3

Process of Screenshot #3

This gif demonstrates the process I used to create the glitched effect on this painting - by painting over a series of squares of masking tape then removing and relocating them.  The gif demonstrates the make or break moment of the process.

Glitched Screen - Cardboard

Screenshot #3, Chaz Howkins, 2017, acrylic and masking tape on cardboard

I continued working on cardboard as it has connotations with relocation and represents fragility in a temporary state.  To create this glitch effect I created an abstract green painting as a base layer and then taped off small square sections, painted the image on top, then removed the masking tape squares and rearranged them as if they are pixels which have strayed from their original placing.
