This particular work of art shows a beautiful combination of soft natural colours and contrasting materials: the hard man-made metal and the soft wood formed by nature. The hard metal has a layer of rust, giving it a beautiful colour and texture. On the soft wood there is a thin layer of moss and this gives the wood a nice green pastel shade.
The similarity between the two materials can be seen in the circles and the round wavy lines. The rusty metal has a round circle and in it you can see the round knot in the wood. The metal also has beautiful curls that look like waves of the sea. The wavy lines can also be seen in the wood.
The colours and materials used give this picture an old brocante and vintage look. A haven of peace in your room!
This naturally toned artwork is based on two different photos: one of metal and one of wood. Putting these two photos together created this special artwork.
Mixing materials and objects, each with its own shape, colour, texture and pattern, is always a particularly fun, challenging and inspiring thing to do!
I see making art as a creative process.
The starting point of this process for me is always a photo or a painting of my own. Every work of art on this site is therefore based on a self-made photo or painting.
I find my sources of inspiration in everything around me...
