ART WORK IN PROGRESS

I haven't finished my collection the quest for the absolute. I continue and I show you the work of his last days.






I prepare canvas with mortar. After the mortar has dried out, I carve in my images with steel brushes, scrapers and metal pencils. This is how I create a relief painting. When I add different colours to the mortar, this artwork can be completed. But most of the times this relief is the foundation for a painting. The painting starts when the relief is completely dried out.




This can take up to a week. I apply more than one layer, but this is not always necessary. This depends on the specific kind of mortar I use. For painting acrylic paint





My daily activities consist of painting on canvas and paper. I do this not to create paintings, but purely to train and improve my skills for my 'Sculpted Canvas' Art..

It was a vision so clear and real and vital to me that in its purity it was almost abstract. This was what I could understand, this was how I lived my life, what I constructed my movement around, how I dealt with the tangible."

How to develop your hidden talents

Learning to paint in a confirmed painter's studio is a way to reveal your hidden talents. You may have always dreamed of learning to paint, but when you tried it alone, you got discouraged, it's normal! Whether in drawing, painting or sculpting, you have to learn some techniques. Yes, nothing is innate, everything can be learned! Sometimes we realize our hidden talents late. I have gathered a lot of testimonies from my students who said:  "I have always wanted to go to the Art School , but my parents didn't encourage me to do so". Unfortunately, when our destiny is in Others' Hands, we are subjected to their choice .

I say: "visual artist". And they a...
