The power of texture
I love experimenting with different media. Polyfilla, gesso, acrylic and any kind of minerals are currently my favourite mixture. Once I have a general idea of what to paint I start with creating the base for the painting mixing the above media together. They create a beautiful combination of marks on their own and suggest shapes on the canvas.. The texture needs to be dry before I start adding the colour. This is when the real fun begins. I follow my instinct as I work with
Paint as you like
I have been asked few times what do I paint these dramatic marines. The best way to answer the question is, by showing you how its done. Here it is! First time-lapse of the painting "Before the Sunset". I chose marine as the subject because its very close to my heart. Every time I go away on holidays I take crazy amount of photographs of harbours boats and ships. There is something I cannot explain that drives me towards them. I love the sounds of boats floating on the water
