Don't Give Up is a 80 cm/31,5 in H x 80 cm/31,5 in, 3,8 cm/1,5 in deep mixed media painting.
This is a clear message: Inspired by the song text of Peter Gabriel "don't give up", my painting should be a carrier of hope.
"...Don't give up
'Cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not beaten yet
Don't give up
I know you can make it good..."
You will find the message sprayed and handwritten on the painting.
Birds represent having wings of possibilities, freedom of flight, precision and timing, perspective, vision and individuality. Imagine the feeling of being a bird and flying high!
Working process:
First, I let fluid acrylic colour flow while rotating the canvas. Once the drying process is complete, I add another layer of fluid colour, and repeat this technique for a couple of days. This method allows me to achieve a unique and truly very special level of transparency and intensity. On top of these layers, I add gestural writing using soft pastels and watercolour pencils, and create colour-shaping effects with expressive thick brush strokes and transparent spray paint to balance my artwork.
This expressive artwork is painted on high quality canvas. It is ready to hang, edges are painted. The signature is on the left front. It is varnished for protection against UV light and dust. You will receive a signed certificate of authenticity.
You will love the positive vibes and bold energy of this painting. A statement piece for your home!
