About Ilgonis Rinkis

Since childhood, I have been wondering about drawings and paintings. I have studied in various art courses. Every work is a Miracle for me - what I want to convey to the world. It is a meditation on a theme, an image and to show it technically in your work. Basically, I paint people - what is an image for an idea, is a certain abstraction of an image; or flowers - as purely decorative works. 
When painting, I use several layers, and smears, because I like the combination with a pasty layer of oil paint. Oil drops give depth give some depth to the painting. That's why I rarely choose acrylic paints, even though it dries quickly.

Some paintings have fairy-tale characters - an illusion. However, it could be a reality - in which life's difficulties and joys are intertwined with dreams, fantasies, and illusions. A real person or a prototype is represented as an image. It is something ephemeral - only characteristic of that moment, which cannot be repeated again.
