Feather is a work I created over 3 years ago.
This Composition is inspired by the a blonde soft atmosphere image.
A natural interplay of lines with zen-like dimension.
The calm colours and graphic light/dark effect make the artwork a nice eye-catcher in most interiors.
Colour use is a mix of natural tones and the base is not pure white but off-white with different nuances of colour.
Almost all my works I first start manually with a sketch then I painted the background. I drew the far separately as a vector and then digitally mounted it in light and dark colours over the background to achieve this graphic effect.
Finally, the final result was digitally post-processed for reproduction at Werk aan de muur
Art should surprise, inspire and for me, being allowed to make art is not work but oxygen why I live.
With creative greetings Joan
