Abstract Girl Painting – artist Martina Shapiro

View or Buy my paintings here: members.shaw.ca Here I continue working on the painting on paper that I started in my video Part 1, adding acrylic colors and finishing the painting. I filmed it by holding the camera in one hand while painting with my other hand – not easy to do :) I paint intuitively, from imagination – I don’t use any models – I am inventing the image as I paint.

  15. Thanks,
    I use heavy weight, acid free, watercolor paper (you can buy it in an art supply store – it’s a high quality paper that does not deteriorate with age) and the brush is a boar bristle Chinese ink brush that I use for the ink drawing and for the acrylic paint I just use regular brush for acrylic paints.

  16. beautiful! what kind of paper and brush are you using?

  17. Thanks, I use acrylic paints in tubes (professional acrylics, they have better pigments) and mix them on the paper plate. The black lines I did with ink using Chinese ink brush.

  18. lovely work you do, i think it’s great :) . are you using fluid acrylics for the colour? at first i assumed you were, but then i saw your palette and wasnt’ sure…

  19. Thank you, that’s so sweet – you made me smile :) I plan on being around and painting for (hopefully) many years so I’m sure your time will come…don’t sell your bed ;) )
    cheers,
    Martina
