Myriads
(this series of artworks was started during the Corona lockdown period, as I felt life needed some brighness and color in these challenging times. After having finished the first composition, I felt there was a larger potential, geared to changing moods and personal needs of the viewer)
A splashing, dashing myriad of color
in all its shapes of life and existence.
Some fresh and pure,…
others worn and lived out.
Blue as hope for a future
Black spots as in
blind spots in our lives

Painter’s comment
Step 1 – collaging the silk paper in several layers on top of each other and wetting the paper so the color starts bleeding.
Step 2 – adding acrylic inks to modify, enhance or push back certain color effects.
Step 3 – adding dark value acrylic inks to give a grungy look to the painting.
Step 4 – final touch of calibrating the values by playing with the inks, more overlaying silk paper collage and fluid acrylics. Checking out in which direction the painting is most attractive.
