Paper Towel Painting


Ken Delmar is a 71 year old painter, who has spent most of his time having fun with painting and promoted unique observance of his spectacular linen canvas artistry, which has been his most common medium used. But since he found himself a new refined medium for depiction and elegant display of his art, he has been decided on turning this mere hobby into proper renowned art form. This American artist states that in early January this year, when winding up his work in his studio, he used these paper towels for the final cleaning of his brushes. 


This is when he clung to the marvelous depth engraved on these paper towels. Since then, he has been working out on diverse paper towel brands and viscosity of manifold oil paints. The perfect combination tends to give a fine absolute version of his talent. The paints on these papers get absorbed into them and give each curve a spectacular and energetic detail. He found new ways of blending of colors on them and prevention of mixing. The results appeared to be much more attractive as compared to his routine canvas. Finally, varnished with matte Damar, coated with Weber gel and famed in between a pair of Plexiglas panels gives his art-form a everlasting life.
