Vanessa Onuk In The Studio
Colours applied in different degrees of pre-watering of paint and canvas, this results in bleeding colors, flowing color transitions and sharp contours. The background used always requires a certain unpredictability in terms of the color gradient and the edge contours, so that a unique image is always created that reflects the interaction of chance, the physics of the colors and the artist's skill
What inspires you?
Nature, Emotions, colours, memories
Describe your creative process.
I usually start my works with a rough idea of the color spectrum, as I think that the choice of colors creates the first emotional impression of the image and it is the information that we first process and associate with the image. The landscape is created from a rough idea of the silhouette, the surrounding contours emerge over the course of the creative process. Overall, I always try to break up heavy bleeding and soft color transitions with contrasts such as sharp lines or saturated colors
