Expressive Brush

"When I paint, I always improvise. Sometimes I have to let go of the brush so that it can make itself independent. Then the brush moves faster than my thoughts. And it reveals what I have felt somewhere in my subconscious." - JG

The abstract fantasy conveys the ethereal dance of winter embrace, the feeling of frosty air and the quiet whisper of snowfall. Subtle shades of a single color combined with vibrant tones and dynamic brushstrokes invite viewers to feel the cool breeze and warmth of the fleeting winter sun, bringing a lively yet serene energy to any space it is placed in. My hope is that this painting evokes serene yet vivid feelings akin to a winter day spent in introspective enjoyment.

I allowed my emotions to guide the bristles with spontaneity and vigor. Each stroke encapsulates a fragment of my thoughts; a chaotic yet harmonious dance of colors, representing the complexities and beauty of raw emotions. The oils blend and interact on canvas, inviting viewers into a vivid experience that stimulates both the eye and the soul, meant to energize a room with its expressive, abstract narrative.

I explore the interplay of colors and textures. The brush strokes are energetic and spontaneous. Each brushstroke is an echo of my emotions: love of snow, joy, chaos, calmness that merge into an ethereal blizzard, inviting viewers to lose themselves in its peaceful depths. This artwork is meant to evoke a sense of wonder and prompt personal reflection.

In this painting, I have woven a tapestry of vibrant colors and emotions, putting the wild, unbridled energy of summer into every stroke. The abstract nature of the painting allows for personal interpretation, while the expressive, gestural brushstrokes and transparenсy of the vivid colors convey the dynamism of the hottest time of the year. It is a celebration of color, movement and the joy of creativity that I hope will fill any space with a vibrant and invigorating spirit.

In creating these works, I put my emotions into each stroke, using bright acrylic paints to explore the dynamic interplay of nature and emotion. The abstract style allows viewers to experience the mysterious essence of a forest lake where colors collide and harmonize to reflect the unpredictable, mystical and beautiful life of nature. This painting invites contemplation and will fill any space with a spirit of freedom and introspective energy.
