Hydrangea
Its delicacy and fragility resemble porcelain. The petals create unique compositions. I thought it was worth taking a closer look at it. This one here is a small fragment of the inflorescence. Very small, and yet it creates such a complicated composition. There is complete harmony here.All that was left for me to do was to look closely and try to recreate this perfection ... and maybe add a few lines and cracks that would so accurately refer to old, noble porcelain
#407 "Hydrangea" original oil painting
The technique I use is oil painting. I apply the paint in thin layers. Where I need to return to lighter tones, I remove the previously applied layer of paint. There is no white paint on my palette. White and light result exclusively from the white background. I think that in this way the painting gains exceptional light and purity of colors. The second color that I never use is black. The reason is similar to the above. I look for pure shades in which the colors interpenetrate, from which I create the deepest tones.
I like to find in the textures of the background and the painted object something from a world that has already passed away, and yet exists in the structure of my painting.
I am interested in creating a painting that has something timeless in it. That is probably why I reach for the good old traditions of the painting craft.
I think that taking care to continue this knowledge and skills enriched with a modern perspective on art gives my works uniqueness. This feature is reinforced by finding a very personal point of view of reality. Observing it and transferring it to the language of painting.
