Abstract Girl Painting - artist Martina Shapiro

Here I continue working on the painting on paper that I started in my video Part 1, adding acrylic colors and finishing the painting. I filmed it by holding the camera in one hand while painting with my other hand - not easy to do :) I paint intuitively, from imagination - I don't use any models - I am inventing the image as I paint.

@svalldeoriola Thank you, I am happy you like my paintings. Go to my Profile where you find my email address (martisart@shaw.ca) and a link to my website. You can email me and I will email you the price list of my available paintings - YouTube does not allow me to do that. Thanks again for your nice comment.

beautiful! what kind of paper and brush are you using?

[MartinaPaintings]

Thanks,

I use heavy weight, acid free, watercolor paper (you can buy it in an art supply store - it's a high quality paper that does not deteriorate with age) and the brush is a boar bristle Chinese ink brush that I use for the ink drawing and for the acrylic paint I just use regular brush for acrylic paints.

lovely work you do, i think it's great :). are you using fluid acrylics for the colour? at first i assumed you were, but then i saw your palette and wasnt' sure...

[MartinaPaintings]

Thanks, I use acrylic paints in tubes (professional acrylics, they have better pigments) and mix them on the paper plate. The black lines I did with ink using Chinese ink brush.

I love the briliant acrylic you use. I want to call your figurative paintings as ' zen-Gauguinism' . How is it?
