This painting was done to accompany the other painting of the giraffes. However this one was done with silver leaf instead of gold leaf. Both these painting were started some time ago, when the drawing was done with graphite on water colour paper. The drawing were supposed to be amusing, and once they were finished they lay around and I did not know what to do with them. Eventually the "Aha Moment" arrived when I was preparing for the exhibition at the Gallery Banco Portugal. Adding paper to the oil painting is commonly called "Collage", but in this case 3 dimensional circuit boards were also added. So, now is painting an example of "Collage" or "Assemblage"?
