Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Mixed technique painting

What are mixed media?

In painting, the terms "mixed techniques" - also known as "mixed media" - designate a creative process which involves the use of at least two different art products, materials or binders of different nature.

One of the best-known classic methods is to first paint a work in tempera and then cover it entirely or partially with oil paint. Mixed media took off with the advent of acrylic.

In addition to being compatible with several art products, this painting can be integrated into different texture mediums, natural elements (paper, sand, shells, feathers, dried plants, etc.), collages, graffiti and transfer of picture. Which allows artists to express their creativity to the fullest.

Description
Acrylic painting and mixed media on 100% cotton canvas 60 x 60 cm. Each brushstroke, each shade of color is an allegory of emotion and human experience, allowing everyone to project themselves into this work and get lost in it. I particularly appreciate mixed media, so I worked on the left strip with a knife using Modeling Paste. The woman is painted in acrylic as are the “prints” of the foliage. The butterflies are made of wood that I painted then glued to the canvas to give more relief to the painting.
