My Creative Space - (RE)DISCOVERIES

Last week has been more about contemplating and research than creating for me. Nevertheless, this little portrait for the e-course with Sharon Tomlinson could be finished (one never knows, right?)

But the process was really hard for me, as I had to discover, that after the course with Flora Bowley, I hate to paint small and realistic and even more - to try to copy another artist's work. So I had to find another way for that course to work for me. This week is about portraits by Romanian artists around 1900. I did a good research about them on-line, especially, about the ones done by the authors associated with the symbolist movement in Romania. It took me 3 hours and was really inspiring: I made 13 study sketches and rediscovered my love for painting and drawing on dark backgrounds. So a couple of new paintings have their first layers already down on pieces of repurposed card board.

And thanks to a free Mandala e-course by Guadalupe Brizuela Cabal , I made another rediscovery: my love for geometric drawings and paintings, especially - the s.c. sacred geometry.

My Creative Space - Painting, painting, painting...

This is the last week with the Bloom True e-course with Flora Bowley. This course has allowed me to make new artist friends and released a huge artistic potential in me. So I have painted a lot this week. These two small paintings could be finished. 

Another large painting is next to finished.

These are the fazes it went through during the process.

All of the smaller paintings have gotten a couple of new layers.


And to improve my portrait painting skills, I have started the first painting in the next e-course: "A Diary of Faces" with Sharon Tomlinson :)
