Two months of work, hundreds of layers, tons of doubt... I had almost given up - this painting felt like a failure. So I decided to take a drastic step: I mercilessly covered it in metallic chrome paint, ready to start over.

And then a MIRACLE happened!

Suddenly - a glow, depth, a 3D effect... The painting came to life, becoming whole, mysterious, almost magical! ✨

How did this happen? Luck? Inspiration? Or is it true that sometimes you have to destroy to create something new?

🖤 This oversized painting was a real experiment. I used salt, dripping, fluid techniques, spray, and created a texture that mimics the look of silk-like decorative plaster.

I finally mastered creating perfect acrylic gradients on large canvases! 🎨
If you have any questions about blending acrylics, feel free to ask—I’d be happy to answer!

My latest piece "Gradient Sunrise on Misty Lake" (60x40 in / 150x100 cm), captures the soft light of sunrise reflecting off a tranquil lake wrapped in fog. With soothing pastel tones and seamless blending, this piece brings the quiet beauty of a November morning to life.

Hey lovely art souls! I need your advice. I've been debating for weeks whether to add something to this painting or leave it as is. 🤔 The artwork is called "Tranquil Horizon" and measures 59 x 39 in (150 x 100 cm). What do you think? Please drop your opinion:

1️⃣ Yes, add something!
2️⃣ No, leave it as is!
3️⃣ Share your ideas!

By the way, I’ve also put together a playlist of videos on the blending technique I used for this painting, where I share tips and tricks. You can check them out here: 🎥✨
