At the Edge of the Horizon that captures the meeting point between earth and sky through textured layers, subtle contrasts, and organic forms. A reflection on balance, depth, and the unseen emotions that lie beyond the visible edge.
Material Used:
– Stretched canvas (18 X 24 Inch)
– Acrylic color
– Palette knife
– Acrylic wall putty
– Gold spray
Although abstract art is open to individual interpretation, here I’ve tried to depict the horizon through vibrant layered textures, where each layer contributes equally to the whole.
Things I learned:
– When working with multiple layers, especially without using the wet-on-wet technique, it’s important to let the latest layer dry completely before adding the next one
– Otherwise, next layer will mix with below layer.
– Spraying water to dilute the top layer can cause it to seep into the layer beneath, which is something you’d probably want to avoid.
– While trying to scrape the top layer with newspaper, spray water cautiously — not too much and not too little. If you use too much water, the paper may stick to the canvas. Also, avoid using a single sheet of newspaper; instead, use multiple pages for better control
– Use any spray paint outside or in open ventilated space.
Here’s a glimpse of how the artwork evolves during and after the process.
