Grown up

Grown up   Mixed media ( Acrylic and collage ) on linen   51x51cm.

Today I was working on canvas again ! Which I normally  like... But after all these months working on paper, I was  missing the 'liberty of the paper', because  it gives you the feeling , that it is not 'that important'! The difference is also that the canvas doesn't give you as much  resistance like  the wood behind the paper does ! 
.... But I like the linen colour and also that you can see the work without having a glass in between !

'The Crow'


' The Crow'.  87x102 cm. Mixed media on linen


In the last year, my theme was 'befluegelte Wesen' that you could translate with 'winged creatures' . I must say, that in German , it does not sound so much like words from a horror show !
One of my first pieces was  "The Crow, inspired by a landing of these huge birds on the power cords while I was walking the street. It was a very strong image, a bit uncomfortable too .... Some people find also the painting 'uneasy' .
