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
This illustration was created for a competition. The theme was the creation of a post-apocalyptic universe and we had to choose a description of a character, creature or environment and make an illustration based on this description. I chose the description of a character named Xavia who is autistic and has difficulty with social relationships. She develops psychic powers related to the void and will later become a sort of goddess in the eyes of her descendants. I wanted to represent this notion of emptiness with the black hole of space which made me think of the pupil of an eye. I thought that she could activate her power to cross space-time by covering one eye. This is what you see in this illustration.
