Gel monotype printing Have you ever been mesmerized by wallpaper patterns? Repeated in a rhythm, floral or geometric, colorful, in the time of baroque…well, overwhelming. Art Deco semi-moons in gold and black. Moroccan patterns, tiles of Portugal or Alhambra.. Modern minimalism of the late decade has suddenly been pushed away in favor of abundance of […]
Holiday cards Choosing holiday cards is hardly much fun – often bought in a rush, spending time to find ‘blanks’ – can’t stand imprinted messages. No gift is complete without a personalized message. For me, they are best given with hand-made cards. Thoughts and good wishes wrapped in a labor of creating. I was beyond […]
Abstract mixed media Orange is electrifying. A piece of sun. Abstract painting is about exploring emotional and subconscious associations with shapes and color arrangements. What emotions are orange abstracts exciting in us? Joy, rage, optimism, energy, anxiety? Here is the experiment we made for this chapter. We painted an abstract painting in orange and asked […]
Mixed media acrylic painting When I was young, budding writer (published a novel when I was 19) and painter, things seemed quite complicated, requiring a lot of philosophical pondering; transcending mathematical axioms to interpersonal and societal relationships was daunting and sparked heated discussions in my, similary inclined, circles. Yet, now, from a distance of years, […]
Mixed media paintings Alter Ego runs deep in each person. We are rarely unidirectional. Rather a multitude. Whereas our previous Alter Ego session explored masks as (artistic) tool to assume different personalities, a desire to conceal or transform our identity, the true ‘alter ego’ resides within us on its own – no need for masks. […]
Mixed media triptych While exploring connections among individuals and within communities, we recognized that connecting with inner self and with our ‘habitat’ is equally important. This mixed media triptych explores our inner ‘diversity’, our natural environment and our relation with it, as well as our place in the universe – an ultimate ‘habitat’. Finding the […]
Acrylic paintings Chinese zodiac is a curious assembly of animals – each a symbol of the year to come and our own fate in it. Well, regardless of the Chinese year we live in (2022 is Year of the Tiger), for our Studio, this is a Year of Hung. Not only because there is a […]
Mixed media Early spring 2022 is a busy time – we are advancing with the ‘Connections’ project while simultaneously testing grounds with various media and ideas for BrainArt and other individual endeavors. We have installed a regular ‘Featured Artwork Weekly’ item in our weekly Programmes to share these ideas. Couple of slides, short explanation of […]
Mixed media Mixed media is a blast!. I imagine that it emerged when an artist, exploring the core medium to (personal) limits, felt compelled to reach for another to break out of limiting boundaries…and, in doing so, oppened up limitless possibilities. Today, there are no boundaries. Any combination of artistic media (and objects) is accepted […]
Pattern drawing Zentangle popped-up, unexpectedly, while we were engulfed in creating neurographics for the ‘Connections‘ project. Mostly because some pattern doodling into neurographic shapes could not be subdued by the prescribed neurographic ‘algorithm’. Zentangle is another type of meditative drawing that uses a mix of repeated shapes and patterns (tangles) – dots, lines, basic curves […]
