Rila mountain, acrylic 12" x 9" |
Hillside shrubs, acrylic 12" x 9" (based on Gerald Ashcroft's tutorial) |
I want to thank my friend, Dina, for making me sign for a painting workshop last weekend. It was at the McMichael's gallery so we also saw the Tommy Thompson exhibition. That unlocked something in me and I couldn't stop thinking about painting.
For courage, I went through a tutorial by an Australian artist Gerald Ashcroft, whose loose style attracted me. Following it, I did the second landscape with only four colors and a painting knife. Then I applied the same technique to the top view from the Rila mountains in Bulgaria. Each painting took me about two hours and I truly enjoyed doing them.

The joy is oozing from both of them! I love this technique with the painting knife. Truely gorgeous paintings, Blaga!
Dear Blaga, your acrylic paintings look so beautiful and vivid. I hope you'll enjoy it fully in the future!
Kind regards, Sadami
