Lulu
Three years ago my daughter @alique_a bought a Christian Lacroix decorative plate (swipe for photo) and said “Ma, can you paint me something like this”
What does “something like this” mean, I asked? “You know, it doesn’t have to be exactly the same”
Yeah right!
Long story short, three weeks, a lot of hours and thousands of details, I painted the “something like this” 😃 Have a wonderful week everyone ❤️#art#arte#pintura#acrylicpainting#colorfulart#artmagazine#artblogger#kunts#nyart#nyartgallery#montrealart#artgallerynyc#art_spotlight#artforyourhome#homedecor#detailedartwork#art_empire#artmagazine#artdaily#artcurator#art_we_inspire#art_insanely#artstudios#miamiart

Mica flakes. They add so much interest to a floral painting they come in various colours. Mix them with glazing medium, apply and when it dries it’s provides a beautiful shine.

�“Here comes the sun” SOLD 40X36 Acrylic, on gallery canvas.
The last of the series commissioned for a summer cottage.
I have heavily textured my canvas using 3 layers of medium. I had to wait for each to dry before applying the next. This texture provides my painting a 3D illusion, brings the flowers to life.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone ❤️ #art#arte#pintura#artmagazine#akkelianorma#kunts#artgallery#floralart#texturedart#homedecor#montrealartist#montrealartgallery#artforyourhome#art_spotlight#texturedart#colorfulart#art_collective#artlover#artcurator#artblogger#artcollector#artoftheday

“Sway with me” 54X42 SOLD
I have been working on a series of textured floral paintings for a summer cottage. I love textured backgrounds, they provide a sculpted feel to the painting.
Flowers are a joy too paint, their shape,color, variety so intriguing and an endless inspiration.
Have a great new week everyone ❤️

WIP
I’m painting on a thick textured surface. I have applied many layers of color glazes, drips and patterns. Some will get covered, some will show through, which is exactly what I’m aiming for. I mix retarder with my acrylic paint, it helps my brush flow comfortably.
It has been a very rainy 2 weeks but my studio is full of color, music and fun, oh! and yes, lots of coffee and chocolate😄
Have a wonderful and safe weekend everyone.

“Wildflower” 20X24 Acrylic on gallery canvas.
Available on my website.
Layer upon layer of color, texture and design, with acrylic mediums and paint.
“She’s a wildflower just waitin’ on a sunny day
Just waitin’ on the wind of change to blow
Just a red hot spark that’s lookin’ for a little flame
Yeah, trying to find the perfect place to grow
She’s a wildflower”#acrylicpainting#arte#pintura#artmagazine#art_spotlight#floralpainting#floralart#colorfulart#texturedart#montrealartist#artgallery#artexhibit#artshow#miamiart#kunts#artlover#art_collective#art_we_inspire#painting#kunts#artdaily#artsy#art_dailydose#art_for_art#artforyourhome#artforbreakfast#artis#artoftheday#artmagazine#akkelianorma

Of splendour in the grass,

We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind”

“Into the mystic” “40X40
Acrylic and gold leaf application, mounted on gallery canvas. All details painted with a liner brush. Available on my website.
Intuitive painting, a world of color and design. Patterns flow easily, unfolding a lush magical paradise. I begin my journey through the canvas allowing creativity to lead the way. I am familiar with every single brush stroke, color and form, captured forever in time.

“Awakening” 48X46 sold Many layers to achieve

“Awakening” 48X46 sold
Many layers to achieve this almost 3D illusion. I begin with a light coat of very soft texture paste, I sometimes sand it down after it dries. I’m looking for slight elevation variations, to allow the paint an interesting flow. Once the texture paste is thoroughly dry, I apply various colors of “high flow” paint by Golden, while wet I spray alcohol, it forms beautiful patterns. Let it dry for a day, when dry I apply a layer of glazing medium, to protect the surface. I search for outstanding patterns the paint has formed and I enhance them. In this case a spring awakening of flowers and leaves took shape.
Have a great week everyone🌸

“Color me gold” 30X24 I painted with texture

“Color me gold” 30X24 I painted with texture paste, gold leaf, ink and acrylic.
Ink colors are very intense, I buy pure pigments, when mixed with acrylics they flow and form beautiful patterns. I use golden fluid acrylics, the heavy body is too thick, it won’t allow the ink to flow.

“Exotic blooms”21X16 acrylic on canvas. Available on @gallea.art website.
Intuitive painting, all line work is done with a .05 liner brush.
Flowers communicate through movement, they sway with the wind, smile to the sun, dance with the birds, blossom for the the bees...“O Tiger-lily,’ said Alice, addressing herself to one that was waving gracefully about in the wind, ‘I wish you could talk!”

Just started on this big canvas. It’s a small corner, the theme is a tropical jungle filled with orchids. Photographing art is a challenge, I have gold leaf and iridescent colors not coming through. Have a great day everyone.
