After my last abstract I wanted to try it out with my usual color palette and chose a photo of the milky way as reference. I admit, that kind of kept me from being open because I somehow tried to make it look like the milky way. At one point I tried to break free from it, which resulted in a rather chaotic painting.
Some days ago I took a class from Denise Love about abstract painting and color blocking. I decided to go for the colors she used in her class and mixed similar colors with my acrylic paints (although I somehow forgot to mix the yellow ochre, oops). Then I just went for it and played around with large brushes, my palette knife and a scraper. And I have to admit, that I really like the result.
Lately, I’ve been drawn to abstract painting more and more. It’s a unique form of art that allows me to express my creativity without being bound by traditional techniques or rules. On the other hand it’s also a challenge if you get stuck in your head. What helps me to prevent going in my head is to just play and experiment without an intention of making „good“ looking art.
These videos have been a pain in the a* to edit. Simply because I had the glorious idea to film the process in almost 4K đ But I finally managed it and hope you enjoy this little timelapse of my acrylic ink experiment on raw cotton.
Part 3 of my acrylic painting „A cosmic symphony“ is slowly coming together.
My friend Sabrina (suiside.de) and me had a little live painting session where we painted together with acrylic paint and talked about the medium. She painted a wood nymph with acrylic paint while I painted a galactic nebula with acrylic inks. The livestream was in German so sorry for any non-german speaking people. But feel […]
This one has been laying around for way too long. I had the idea somewhere in summer but only in September I started playing on a canvas that had two lyric pages glued on. And somehow suddenly everything clicked when I let go and just played a bit around. Now I finally managed to cut some of the videos and here is the part where I created the background.
A rather late merry christmas from me to you. I’ve been pretty busy with writing my advent calendar and preparing everything for Christmas so I had little time to write here. The next few weeks probably won’t be an exeption since I have more exciting things on my list. But I will try my best to post more content here, soon.
It has been a while that I posted. I’ve been pretty busy with a new project at work because I started editing a small magazine. And while I am used to write fiction and design magazines, writing articles was definitely something completely different. There is surely plenty of room to grow but for the first […]
I wanted to paint a cover for my writers journal. The journal is mostly an overview since my story will probably be three books later. So to keep track of people, places and everything, I started this journal. And now it finally has an appropriate cover page đ„°
