Acrylic on Canvas
Work In Progress
Another painting from the Angel series. I believe I will spark things up in this one with a top layer of oil paints. I love oils…. Acrylics are wonderful and are so “user friendly” but the colors, smells and overall feel of oils has stolen my heart…
Be well…
Oil on Canvas
I started a series of angel/sprit guide paintings for a small exhibition for an open house at a yoga studio in Thessaloniki this month. Unfortunately, strong southern winds kept me stuck on the island. No ferries ran for 2 days. It was difficult for me to let go of not being able to go. There is a saying here that says “every obstacle is for the best”. The only good I can see so far is that this gives me more time to let the paint dry and check for possible cracking. I’m using a new medium mix which I am not entirely sure of yet. Will have to wait and see.
Colors used are the 3 primary colors. Cad red and yellow, ultramarine blue and Titanium white. I wanted to stick with the ‘essence’ of color and not use too many mixes. I think it brings a certain vibrancy to the images and life to the painting.
Be well…..
