Be My Valentine

Mixed Media on Canvas. A playful interpretation of botanical forms and heartstrings in a contemporary multi layered painting.

I’ve used multiple layers of colour here, in a range of mediums from acrylic inks, oil bars, and pastels, with metallic highlights. I’ve also used a wide variety of mark making techniques to bring interest to each of the layers - zoom in to view. Finished in oils, then all sealed with a satin finish, protective art varnish.
