Abstract Mixed Media Painting

Technique: A painting created via mixed media on canvas, using acrylic paints, modelling paste, and gold leafing.

Inspiration: This striking painting presents an abstract expression of the sky, ocean, and mountains; blending texture, depth, and color in a captivating way.

Dominated by shades of phthalo blue, burnt umber, gold, grey, silver, and white, the central focus is the mystery of the planet's most majestic landscapes, rendered with heavy, textured strokes. The use of gold leafing and layers evokes both the harshness and grandeur of nature. Above the mountains, the sky shifts between soft, flowing streaks of blue and dramatic sweeps of cloud, enhanced with touches of gold. These golden highlights showcase reflections of dawn and dusk.

Below, the same metallic gold reappears, scattered across the surface like reflections in water, giving a simultaneous display of calm and power. The bold contrasts of dark and light, smooth and textured, natural and metallic, invite viewers to interpret the scene in multiple ways. It can be read as a literal landscape, but also symbolically as a blunted line between the real and the imagined.

I use my imagination to visualise the unknown in the skies, the depths of oceans, and unassailable mountain peaks. The painting conveys strength, serenity, and an underlying sense of timeless beauty, making it both visually compelling and emotionally evocative.
