“Composition 24 – Part 1 & 2” Completed!

Here we go, as I mentioned in my previous post, “Composition 24” will go to two different families who share a lot together. In fact the left part of the composition will be given as a wedding present to the other family. This is really exciting because it is exactly what I want people to experience with my concept: lasting emotions of happiness. This painting will undoubtedly re-inforce the bond between these families and I am thankful that I was part of it.

Start of “Composition 24 – Part 1 & 2”- Commissioned Piece

I was asked to do two commissioned pieces, each for two different families. One of the paintings will be given as a wedding present for the first family, the other for home decoration in the other family. The story behind this is that the two families have been extremely close throughout their entire lives which sparked the idea of creating two canvases to be part of one big piece, making them “connect” to one another and for ever. Each party will then have a piece of the entire design.

“Composition 23”-Completed!

I am delighted to present the final product of “Composition 23”. It has been quite the journey since the beginning as the overall canvas is one of the biggest I have made. The piece also required a very high level of detail work as similar patterns can be found in the four canvases. The challenge was to replicate color patterns that make sense togethers and brighten the room.

The painting has a motion from inside to outside and a spiral dynamic as well. The choice of colors reflects my philosophy when approaching a piece: let the feelings do the work.
