VANDIJK2008© Oil, mixed media on canvas with excerpt
I used gesso and matte medium to "glue" a
piece of cloth (gauze sponge)
on my canvas for some extra texture.
Then I started painting.
I love the
organic effect and the graceful flow of fiery
colors!
I renamed this painting: "Alegría"
Alegría is a mood, a state of mind, which means Joy or "Jubilation" in Spanish.

Harry Kleefsman. Een waarschuwing was niet nodig Olga! Ik weet dat je abstract werkt en je bent een kind uit een bloembollen land! Dus kan het nooit mis gaan. Dekleuren zijn mooi en warm en helemaal abstract is het ook niet, want alles nog goed herkenbaar.Mrs.David Jobes(Dee) Jobes 07 Dec 2008
