Starlet (2019)Acrylic painting by Lana Frey

You know this type: waiting for the spring, awry look, disheveled hair - it's all here.

Most of all I like emotions - our regular daily life is a diverse mix of different feelings. Love, joy, desire, sadness and many others - all of them I try to catch and then express through colors and balanced harmonious forms. I use a palette knife and try to express emotions in fast large strokes so I do not lose the feelings and visions they have brought. I never plan ahead color variations and shades and I do not sketch faces since sketches are useless with very thick layers of paint. For me, all of these paintings are living a spontaneous process and clean improvisation.

A piece from my "colorful emotions" collection where I mix fauvism and pop-art styles. Original hand-made acrylic painting on canvas, a small miniature made with a palette knife only - a very painstaking and precise work.

The artwork is at the exhibition at the moment so it's not available for online sale.
