Acrylic on canvas with fabrics and wooden frame
Contempotary abstract, figurative painting
This figurative artwork depicts a rural worker, after a long and hot day of labor, enjoying a sunset while playing his banjo. With warm and vibrant colors, it conveys the pleasure of simple things such as a sunset, nature, and music. Things that we often take for granted and forget to appreciate due to the triviality in which we confine ourselves.
Starting from a pre-painted and framed canvas, a new work emerges using different mediums, including wall paint, acrylic paint, and the collage of various materials such as fabrics and kitchen paper. The painting extends onto the frame, thus simulating the infinite beauty of portuguese landscapes.
