This Abstract Painting
Black and white abstract art holds great depth and energy. These two colours are the most contrasting in the colour spectrum. Very powerful colours each attempt to dominate the space. Black can make its presence known using a small area, In contrast, white needs to cover a much larger area to establish itself.
And that’s how I created a balance between the two contrasting energies. I have allowed white to occupy most of the canvas space and disjointed black dominance. Although I used some white oil paint, I allowed more of the white canvas surface to show its beautiful texture.
Shades of warm colours, red and yellow, add balanced energy to the overall painting.
This oil painting includes my three favourite colours: black, white and yellow (gold). I use these three colours in many of my paintings. To me, they hold wonderful meanings and representations of life energy.
Yellow (or gold) is the colour of the sunlight, the main source of all energy. White reflects all lights/ energy and black absorbs all.
Because I used thick layers of oil paint, it a long time for the painting to dry and fully cure. In total, it took 14 months before I applied a thin layer of protective varnish.
Working with oil paints demands time and a great deal of patience. And this is one of the reasons many artists move away from oil paintings.
