Original artwork description:

This series was born as a creative contrast: after painstaking work with high detail, I wanted to move on to broad strokes, bold shapes and experiments with textures. It's like a school break after a long lesson: you had to "warm up" emotionally and technically.
It was the mixed media that made it possible to achieve depth and complex texture, which becomes the main character of these works.

Materials used:

Acrylic paint, texture paste, acrylic varnish
