Artist's mediums
As an artist, she thrives on the exploration of various mediums, each offering its own unique possibilities and avenues for expression.
Her love for watercolour stems from its spontaneity; the fluidity of this medium allows her to capture moments in a way that feels immediate and alive. She relishes the unpredictability of watercolours, where each brushstroke can reveal unexpected colours and textures, creating a vibrant dialogue between the art and viewer. ​
​Acrylics, on the other hand, provide her with the flexibility to change and evolve the work. Their quick-drying nature enables to layer and manipulate her creations, making adjustments that can transform an entire piece. This adaptability allows to explore deeper ideas and refine her vision, embracing the freedom to experiment without constraints.
​She also likes sketching in her sketchbooks. These sketchbooks serve as intimate records of her observations and inspirations, capturing the essence of places, people, and moments as they unfold. Whether she is on the move or settled in her studio, sketching allows to refine the ideas and explore the world around her in a spontaneous and unfiltered way. Usually using graphite, charcoal, ink, gouache, watercolour etc.
She also loves to incorporate mixed media into her work, blending various materials to create richer textures and dimensions. This approach not only enhances the visual impact of her pieces but also invites new narratives to emerge, as different mediums interact in unexpected ways. The combination of watercolour, acrylics, gouache, ink and other materials enriches her creative process, allowing her to explore the full spectrum of an artistic vision.
​Ultimately, her journey through these diverse mediums is a continual exploration of expression, spontaneity, and transformation. Each medium she engages with contributes to her growth as an artist, expanding creative toolkit and inviting to push the boundaries of her work.
