Happy New Year!
The last painting of 2023. Managed to do it!)
In this painting, I've poured my soul into capturing the essence of tranquility interwoven with mystery. The subject stands contemplatively, flanked by feline guardians, symbols of intuition and grace. The textured acrylics craft a tactile depth, with each brushstroke emphasizing the quiet strength and intricate patterns of life's tapestry. This piece isn't just a portrait, it's an invitation to ponder the silent stories that unfold in the spaces between us.For texture on the primed canvas before painting, a layer of textured paste with small glass particles is applied and then sanded with sandpaper for smoothness. Dutch acrylic paints Amsterdam, golden leaves and Italian canvas tm Unico were used. Finish - satin varnish. The ends are painted in the background color. Series "Life in Avatar". Created on and shipped on a pre-stretched canvas on a wooden frame and packed in cardboard box with layers of bubble wrap.
