Encounters - wip

 New "Encounters" serie painting. This time the title came instantly, but I must see if it is still fits later on. A Lynx is on its way. Cold background.

Encounters - Meeting Big Bear

My favorite motif is animals as you are probably aware of, and then I find it playful to paint abstractly.

I have only had a few of my abstract paintings out on exhibitions. I'm been missing something. That "something" I have then begun to paint in the form of animals. Both in itself abstract and together with an abstract background.

I draw the animal in the motif, and subsequently I paint an abstract background. Then I integrate the main motif with paint and pencil strokes of different kinds.

I have good energy and desire to work when I am in the process, and I like the pictures a lot.

Mixmedia, 40 x 50 cm on canvas board. 

Intention: 
to paint a series of animals and abstract painting. The series can both be enjoyed for the colorful animal characters themselves, but I also wanted to weave in expressions of more symbolic layers. Still, my starting point is my joy at animals and nature, and my attitude about the importance of preserving animals and nature.

In the abstract form, I look beyond / into behind the animals' realistic appearance, and also try to create a modern, and more original expression than I do in my realistic art.

Think this Guy will be finished monday/tuesday 🐻

Intention & Inspiration

 

Meeting White deer

 

First from my new Animals/Abstract painting. "Meeting White deer", serie: Encounters. Acrylic and oil pencils on Hahnemühle bamboo paper.

Experiments

 

I am currently experimenting. I had long wanted to mix Animaldrawings and abstract painting. Here I draw the animals freehand in graphite and then start painting the background. Even I love the lines of this kind of drawings - much alive and searching - most of them will be covered with paint. I will add graphite again and colored pens of different kinds. But the initial drawing will dissapear. Final painting to be shown later. Deer are on Hahnemuhle Bamboo paper and bear on canvas board.  #animalandabstractpainting #lovelines #loveabstract #loveanimaldrawings #acrylicpainting #oilpencils #graphite #coloredpencil

Zebralicious

 

Do you like Zebra no. 3? The wonderful colors of the Zebra are a nice match to the red background, a painting with much Color-energy. So if you like zebras and need  lots of Color, you might fall in love and find this could be your painting:)
