ANSWER TO MYSTERY TECHNIQUE #50:

This collage began with loosely painted watercolor shapes. After they dried, I tore and crumpled pieces of Unryu paper before placing them on part of the painting’s surface.  By brushing matte acrylic medium on top of the Unryu,  I glued it down while emphasizing its translucency and long fibers. I also added a multi-layered collage fragment near the center. After the matte medium dried,  I used thin washes of acrylic ink in a few places to create a greater sense of unity.
