New Brush-Wipe Style Painting - "White Haze on Electric Blue" by Michael Carlton

New Brush-Wipe Style Painting -
"White Haze on Electric Blue"

ORIGINAL AVAILABLE

New Brush-Wipe Style painting I finished recently - it's a monochrome-white painting on a metallic-blue background and has quite a Mark Rothko feel to it...

Often with this style of painting I don't use a border but for this particular piece I wanted a bold outline to complement and contrast the hazy nature of the main body of the piece.

This painting is part of a new series of pieces I've been working on since moving to a new studio in Duivendrecht. Most of the paintings in the series have been on wood (including this one) as it's a new medium I'm experimenting with...

I'll be posting more paintings from the new series here on the blog and on my Social Media pages if you'd like to see the new pieces as they're released...

All the new pieces will also be available for sale in the Online Shop - so if you see one you like then click on the link in the post and it will take you directly to the right page in the shop.

Hope you enjoyed the new piece - comments and feedback as always are welcome below!

I should hopefully be able to post another new piece again early sometime week...

Till then!

Michael

New Brush-Wipe Style Painting
- "Brush-Wipe Style Square"

ORIGINAL AVAILABLE

Brush-Wipe Style Painting by Michael Carlton

Just finished a new acrylic painting in the Brush-Wipe Style that's a part of a collection of 10 or so pieces created to inaugurate my move to a new studio in Duivendrecht.

It's a combination of loosely applied acrylic paints that creates a hazy, etheric feel. I've also mixed in some metallic gold paint too which gives an eye-catching glimmer when viewed from certain angles...

The painting is on 9mm thick mdf board and measures 20cm x 20cm

I hope you like the new piece and as always comments are welcome below!

There will be more from the collection released soon and as usual I'll be posting them on my Social Media pages as soon as they're ready... ;)

Speak soon,

Michael

New Mural at Maccheroni Restaurant, Amsterdam

New Mural at Maccheroni Italian Restaurant

Just finished a new mural at Maccheroni Italian restaurant in Amsterdam.

The mural measures about 6.5 square metres and is in the main dining/ordering area of the restaurant.

Video:

The painting is also clearly visible from outside so I've worked the design around the logo and lettering on the window:

The painting has also got spot-lights on it so I've added a specific gloss varnish to make the surface of the painting reflect the light:
