  • THE PROCESS OF CREATING A PAINTING "AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD"

    I painted this picture on acrylic paper. The portrait of the dog is painted with acrylic paint, and the vinzels are drawn with liquid metal. Sometimes in this kind of painting I add a gold marker.

    About my materials

    About my materials

    I want to tell you about the materials that I use in my paintings. As you can see, almost all of my paintings I use gold. A gold marker, liquid metal and gold leafs help me to make its imitation. Also sometimes I use golden outlines, they help to create an additional volume and texture to the picture. I paint with oils and acrylics on canvas covered with black acrylic primer. And in the graphics I use black paper. First, I draw the figure with a white pencil, then I refine the light with a white pen. In the background I often use a golden marker, sometimes I add a golden outline. Recently I have been mastering pastel pencils so that my work becomes more diverse and interesting.

    The process of creating a painting "Hummingbird flight"

    In this picture, I wanted to convey the elegance and mystery of the flight of a hummingbird over fabulous flowers in the darkness of the night. I painted the bird with oil paints, the ring is painted with imitation gold leaf. I was inspired by Gustav Klimt's painting to create patterns of patterns on the back. The painting also used a golden outliner to add volume to the plants.
