By grabbing the momentum of the beginning of the year, I wanted to create a contemporary painting, a figurative artwork in which I reflect on the current events and the reality around us. I set the bar a little higher than that, because I was thinking not only in a fresh and more modern style, but also in human figure … and this is notoriously not one of the simplest jumps. But I ran at …
Forgotten Land
Nowadays when I’m searching for some inspiration, my main focus is on paintings made with loose brushwork and rough lines. Maybe because in my own paintings I like to work out every little detail, painting sharp and precisely shaped lines. And still admiring those who can “put aside” their works. Here I mean those artworks where the artist paints a few lines on the canvas almost sketchily, loosely, still everyone knows and sees what the …
Eternally Greens
My first painting of 2021 inspired by Duncan Rostron (@gravellyshores) who captured a wonderful moment in Little Langdale. I totally fell in love with the colours of his photo, and I was also impressed by its fresh greens, the warm yellows and by the reflections of the hills… and yes, I know that I have a little fetish or worship for reflections, but honestly these are photos taken by Mother Nature of her own beauty. …
Lake Hámori
This acrylic painting with the title Intoxicating (50×70 cm) was commissioned by a dear friend and her husband. I was very happy to fulfill their request, because they imagined the place of their engagement, the always beautiful Lake Hámori, in a painting. This part of Lillafüred is magical, and in autumn it shines in the most beautiful colours. The theme was given, so weeks ago I was started to paint love. As the painting was …
The sky above the clouds is always blue
This acrylic painting was made for a call for proposals and was titled Always Blue – Above the Clouds (40×30 cm). The Jancsó Art Gallery has announced a competition for professional and self-taught artists, in which it can be entered with paintings reflecting the quarantine or with artworks made during that time. I think I can safely say that during the quarantine, the lives of all of us were characterized by general greyness. Our everyday …
Why are abstract paintings lovable?
Since I have made my paintings public, I have been thinking here mainly of the Instagram platform, I have been able to keep track of what really interests you. What images are the ones you enjoyed looking at, what are the ones that easily pique your interest… And yes, these are mostly the abstract images. Why the abstracts? Based on the images you like the most, you seem to love colours, Nature, and pastose painting. …
Cold enjoyment in the summer
This heavenly Ice Cream Cake painting was made in early July, which I painted on a 40×40 cm black canvas. The original image on which the painting is based was enchanting, and I trusted that you would like it too. The cake is vegan anyway, which is a special pleasure for me, although I admit I didn’t try the recipe itself. For several weeks while I was painting I was fighting my hunger watching these …
