It’s Never as it Seems (2022) Original Acrylic Painting by Marti Leroux

Nothing is as it seems; everything is as you allow it to be.
C. Messina


I call my painting process intuitive painting. I have no plan of composition or colour when I start. Sometimes the painting is simply an abstract & sometimes I start to see an animal appear in the shapes & lines I’ve painted. Then I help it along because I also love realism. In this painting a horse started appearing but I didn’t help it along to make it realistic. I wanted to leave it raw & purely intuitive.
