Breeziness

For this painting, I used a rough canvas. Its texture is easily perceived and successfully complements the overall mood of the painting. Strokes of paint on flowers look energetic, expressive. At the same time thin layers of paint on the vase and background balances the still life. The painting has intention in blue tones that complement shades of cream, soft pink and warm red-brown. The general impression of the picture is freshness, exciting rattling of subtle sound modulations. You want to look at it, return to it again and again.

I love working with a palette knife. It allows me to bring spontaneity, energy and mystery to my paintings. The alternation of brush strokes and palette knife makes the picture emotionally rich.
