My mixed media paintings are all about layers, vibration between the colors and composition.
I use different layers of acrylic color, Conté color pencils, Graphite and much more (always respecting the materials compatibility) on jute, natural material with a structured surface.
In all my paintings I feel the need to bring contrasting colors together and make them stay in harmony,
enforcing each other and making the view vibrant to the eye.
For this reason the painting is one thing from a distance, and another thing in close up view with hundreds of tiny details that one can discover through time.
In this one especially I had a very strong inspiration regarding the colors. On my walks though the vine yards here in the valley in autumn it is like an explosion of colors, and I thought about the seasons and the time apparently passing.
