Original artwork description:

The Raw mixed-media portraits are created by digitally blending various photographs. These digital compositions serve as the foundation for the mixed-media work, effectively functioning as a vibrant underpainting. Once the digital process is complete, thick layers of gel medium are added by hand, and the artwork is finished with acrylic paint, oil paint, oil sticks, and a UV-resistant varnish.

The materials are applied creatively using brushes, sponges, palette knives, rollers, and even fingers, making the digital origin tangible once again. Each piece is handcrafted on a linen canvas mounted on an aluminium 3D frame. The series of these unique artworks is limited to a maximum of 25 editions, ensuring that no two pieces are identical, thereby highlighting the exclusivity of each portrait.

Materials used:

Print, heavy gel medium, acrylics, oil, satin coating
