This painting consists of four layers - one representing each of the painting tools and techniques that Luke has been using for his floor painting.

Layer 1 - using a paint roller to make a bold background in lilac grey.

Layer 2 - using a thick brush attached to the end of a cane to make strong brushstrokes in a deeper grey.

Layer 3 - Luke’s cane, with half a tennis ball attached to the end, dipped in paint to make beautiful line work up and down the canvas in shiny gold.

Layer 4 - Drip paint using watered down, white paint on a brush, Luke drips the paint onto the canvas as he sways his body.
