Recently I love overpainting earlier works I was´t completely happy with. I feel that it suits the paintings well and this is a way of painting similar to the old Dutch masters, painting in thin layers from gouache, egg tempera to oil or Acrylic. Oil in former times was too expensive to use for the whole painting. Nowadays, it is not a question of expensiveness but of light. Many different layers make an impression of lots of light in a painting, and I love to catch this special light very much. This abstract painting is about rain and how lovely rainy days can be, washing away pains and sorrows and making new life possible. Only when we had a long draught this summer most people realized how important the rain is. And this could also be a metaphor for life in general - there will be no growth without the rain!
80x80x2 cm, Gouache, Pastels, Oil, Acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas. Signed on the back, ready to hang. Certificate of Authenticity included.
Would love a white, golden or silver frame, although you can hang it unframed.
