Primavera
The first painting, made with make-up tools and oil colors.
July 9, 2019
100*75 cm, make-up, oil, canvas
This portrait I've created using the oil painting technique with make-up tools. I used lipstick, eye shadows, kayals, oil colors, matt varnish, and turpentine. The lady on the painting is pregnant. For posing, she visited me in floral dresses and reminded me of Primavera from a Botticelli piece. So we named my painting the same way. Experimenting with the materials and mediums I've started to research if a female art looks different and if there is another sensuality, perception coming from women artists.
