Brush strokes .. My WORLD


The use of brushes.. this is a very interesting subject for me at least. I love brush strokes, basically the brush do most of the work IF you know how to use it for sure... not accidentally used.. the way brush strokes in a painting is very unique as it brings the painting alive. Whether you are painting abstract or portrait or anything else, the way you hit the canvas with the brush, it should show the beauty.

Of course each brush has it's own use and every artist know that. We can share this together, this is a simple photo from Google:


As you can see, these mainly the basic brushes and how to use it. Or may these a way to use them if you are more creative and advanced. These brushes can be used very creatively in abstract floral paintings as I am using them now. 


I had an exhibition before two weeks ago and I was working on my paintings that will be there. Both paintings in somehow I am not happy with, or I don't think I paint in good way under pressure....
I hate deadlines, but otherwise, I know I am not going to get anything done without deadlines. For brushes, I had much more experience now with these two paintings I did for the exhibition which was about the desert. One of the paintings contains much more complex brush strokes that drove me crazy while I was working on it. The final touches also, fine lines, and small details that I must be patient to nail it... but the funny thing that I spent almost a week and more on one painting, the other I finished it in almost 2 hours morning time and I was very focused, becuz lets face it.. I have to finish them.

Anyway, they both turned well and now hanging on a black wall in the exhibition in Dubai Art Hub finally.

Brushes, can take you to far away and does amazing work, very satisfying movements and strokes that creates a piece of beauty you think you can see or do ever...... anything you can imagine can be creating by a brush and couple of paints.

Hope this post is useful and inspirational to you..

Thanks....
