Abstract Mixed Media Painting

“Dreaming in Blue and Gold” Mixed media on 40x40x3.5cm canvas. Gloss finish. Like a memory suspended in the sky, this painting captures clouds in motion—weightless, luminous, and endlessly changing. Gentle blues dissolve into one another as gold leaf glimmers like sunlight breaking through mist. The piece speaks to stillness, hope, and the beauty found in quiet transitions. This abstract cloud painting explores the fleeting nature of light and atmosphere. Flowing layers of acrylic create a soft, dreamlike sky, while touches of gold leaf catch the light, suggesting moments of clarity within motion.

The work invites the viewer to pause, breathe, and drift into a contemplative space between sky and emotion. My process is deeply physical and additive. I utilize a blend of acrylics, marble powder, and modeling paste to sculpt the canvas, creating a high-relief quality that moves beyond the two-dimensional plane. These layers represent the complexity of human emotion—built up, weathered, and occasionally fractured to reveal hidden depths. All original paintings are on 3.5cm deep 3D canvas. Ready to hang and comes with a certificate of authenticity. I create for the collector who seeks a visual anchor—a piece that is a sanctuary of quiet reflection.
