It is so exciting to be able to publish my first ever art video! I waited for so long as per life distractions and finally here it is! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Art<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I made an abstract acrylic mixed media painting in my art journal. The technique is so called mixed media. It means I used several acrylic paints, pastels as well as some collage to produce the final effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Art<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

First I made a heavy texture by mixing shredded paper with some white gesso (acrylic primer). I glued little paper beads (which I had made before) on it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When everything was dry, I painted over it with Lemon Yellow and Prussian Blue colors. I deepened the shadows with a touch of Payne’s Gray. Instead of white paint I used white gesso. (The idea for this particular color combination came to me as a true inspiration. Recently I bought an chartreuse coat, mainly because I liked the color. Shortly after that the image of this painting suddenly appeared inside of my imagination, whole and finished, textured and colored.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Art<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the end I added some marks with water-soluble wax oil pastels and a few splatters with diluted acrylic paint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
