For this, I really enjoyed blending and layering colours and creating sections. This reminded me of both the iridescent colours of opals and the changing appearance of fields through the summer. I decided the ombré blending didn’t need any distracting elements added to it so I just added texture to the gold areas. For this, I used lino clippings embedded into texture paste as I don’t like to waste things and I feel the Lino gives a quirky appearance. The gold leaf adds depth and light to the textured surface again adding to that gem like or sunshine quality.

Feel free to msg me for a private commission. All art is made with reclaimed canvas and salvaged mixed media to reflect the climate change crisis.
CLT_Abstracts takes the boundaries of the skilled art world and breaks them down in a bid for putting self expression as the priority, without fear of being predictable or pretentious! I make art based on what I feel rather than what I see in the hope that it speaks to you and leaves a bold impression through a sense of movement, burst of colour and curious textures.
Inspiration comes to me on daily Cornish walks near to my home. My blog aims to explore where my inspiration comes from in more depth as well as sharing my making process. Enjoy!
