Abstract Italian painting, Multi media hotsell art, Acrylic on canvas, Glass beading| "Bordo del volcano"
General:
"Bordo del volcano" is an abstract Italian painting including multi media elements like metal wire, glass beading, structure texture, and glitter art on reds, oranges, yellows, with black accent. 1/1
Inspiration:
Italy has a lot of volcanoes, especially in the South. I have experienced a volcano eruption in my childhood and the colors that this natural energy explosion produces.
The innermost of a volcano breathes deep red colors, but when lava spills out it eventually cools and can form some beautiful forms, shapes and darker colors. In this multi media art, a volcano was my inspiration from the deep inner guts (dark reds) to the softer colors outside of the volcano. I used some embellishments in the form of glitter and glass beads.
Materials Used:
- Acrylic paint
- Stretched canvas
- Easel
- Colored glass beads
- Structure component
- Gold glitter
How Long to Complete:
My multi media art is streamlined in how long it takes me to complete each piece. Typically, it takes several days depending how many media forms I use. If I were to use just acrylic paint and glitter it would be quicker because it has only 2 layers of drying, but because in most pieces I use multiple media forms it takes several days sometimes 2 - 3 hours a sitting. If I texture the canvas which is the case in most of my pieces, I apply either actual sand or a texture media in both cases this takes a good 2 days to adhere and dry. Then I start with applying my colors. These have to dey as well and I may change and go over layers of colors which again asks for drying time. My last layer are the embellishments such as glass beads and glitter. The very last step, once I am satisfied how the piece is looking, I will apply a protective coating. Then the piece is completely done.
How to Display:
My mixed media artwork is intended to be a home decor element displayed either on a surface top on the easel it comes with or as a wall hanging. Adding to its dimension, this piece can mount in its square or rhombus (diamond) shape. They should always compliment the colors in a room or be the accent color. I can see this piece on an easel by itself on a hallway accent table or on a side table. But I feel it can be displayed on a wall maybe grouped with other pieces.
I hope it speaks to you and tells you the perfect spot in your home to complete your space!

Additional Artist Notes:
The experience of seeing a volcano erupt is scary but also very eventful. Needless to say that this imprinted my mind to this day and the feelings and forms come out in my paintings.
