About the Item

This Unique painting is made with mixed media. Alkyd paint, Acrylic paint and layers Epoxy Resin. The painting is made in multiple layers you can see through. With a marvelous effect with light and color as a result of that. The artist about her time in Florence: " During my work period at the Florence Academy of Art, I saw the most beautiful tondo's by painters like Michelangelo. I made this painting 'Pomona' inspired by those old masters with many layers". Anne-Rixt Kuik enthusiastically tells about her motives. She tells a story with her work. The story of all people is the story of emotion. People consist of different layers, explains Anne Rixt, I want to show that in my work too. I play with the dye skin, at the moment she is experimenting with epoxy resin, because of this the bottom layer of oil paint and the top layer of resin work together and you get a very 'dreamy' effect. The collars in her work remind me of the old masters such as Frans Hals. However, Anne Rixt chooses to tell you how to make collars of petals. Here too, some fresh, fresh leaves, but also dry and brown wilted leaves occur. Here again several layers, literally and figuratively. Anne Rixt tells about this: `With my Epoxy works I try to reflect the layering of my models. I want to show their complexity. Their strength, beauty, but also fragility. If you look closely at someone's appearance, you see the person behind it. I want to literally break open that skin. ' She is currently experimenting with epoxy, combining techniques such as fresco, alla prima and layered painting. Some paintings have been set up in 8 layers. She pushes and draws pigments and paint through the epoxy layer. "You then have no control over the outcome. I'm quite a control freak and it's a challenge to let go. You first have to learn technology before you can let go. In theory I control all techniques, but now I give my own interpretation. ' We are proud to work with young talents like Anne-Rixt. An artist who already chooses her own way. Her exploratory spirit and creativity, together with her talent, splashes off her work. Her drive is enormous and we have a lot of confidence in the future of her. The art world is still hearing a lot from her! We ship our paintings worldwide in a custom made wooden crate for free.
