ÔPhoto Mixed Media, Selected Works 2007-2016Õ, is a collection of paintings by Michael Conway where my photographs are at the core of a vision and worked to a point where I consider them more a painting than a photograph. This may include distressed black and white image with some color to colorful montage images with other mediums added. I use a number of mediums throughout the works: acrylic paint, charcoal, air brushing and pencil; also incorporating at times image transfers with digital photo transfer film on birch substrates, canvas and plexiglass; undercoats of texture and finishing the paintings with multiple coats of acrylic varnish or brushed and fused encaustic.
