For this painting I used a grid method to transfer the image to the canvas.

Qiang Huang at www.qhart.com (Apps) offers this amazing tool for artist to put a grid over a digital photo to make it easy to sketch out an image. Another useful filter is "oily" it reduces the image to a squinting and helps you to just see the shapes. Great tool to start out with, before you are getting carried away in details.

Here are some progress shots.

My newest painting is called "Inner Peace".

What do I see, when I am looking at the painting?
She is feeling content, being there all by herself, alone. She doesn't need to put on a mask and smile and pretend. She is grounded with herself and her environment. She symbolizes inner peace, a place where she is comfortable and can breathe.
The birds represent peace and freedom. They can go wherever they please, nothing holds them back, or weighs them down.

Thought I'd share my current work in progress with you, since I've been quiet for a while. Just started again with painting and drawing. It's a great feeling getting creative again. The feeling of absolute freedom and endless possibilities. Let's start the party and see where it leads...

Looking back

Newest painting is of the town Óbidos. I wanted to showcase it's colourful and vibrant beauty. Óbidos is famous for it's Medieval Days in the summertime and has a stunning charming, old vibe. Walking through the arch is like finding a hidden treasure.

When I first saw this photo on Facebook by Ligia Franco Glover , I was so in awe. It felt right. The object. All the angels and shapes. I was immediately drawn to it and felt such an incredible urge to paint it. This is how I got inspired to paint again. Here is to my painting Number #2. A fisherman sorting out his traps. A mixture of chaos and order.

It's been a year since I last painted. Moved countries, collected a lot of material to get inspired by. Finally the day has come where I can share some new artworks.
This one is the first one of a series "Faces of the Algarve". I like to showcase typical Portuguese people in their daily lives with the beautiful architecture which surrounds us.

I haven't been painting for a while. So much happened in the meantime. But I did it, I picked up a paintbrush again! It felt so good getting creative again. Even when it was just for a quick colouring of the matting for those paintings. Still, choosing the right colour to enhance my paintings, adding a colour which suits the frame and the decoration along with it. I like how the cream colour draws attention to the 3 little ones, but doesn't steel the show.
My dear friend just mailed these 3 paintings to me. They are from 2004 and one of my very first paintings. I am so full of joy to have them back in my life, since thus is the only work of my art I actually possess. Thank you Monika 😘

Big thank you to Teresa Neusch-Remax to give my art a new home. Those 2 paintings have a special place in my heart and I am glad they found a new and exciting place to show off their best sides. If you in need of a realtor, you can trust Teresa with your needs. She is amazing! She just helped us sell our place in record time in a difficult, shifting market.

A timelapse video of my recent commission I did a while back. #commission #commissionedart #painting #artist #yqg #yqgartist #canadianartist #commissionswelcome

Attached is my newest commission I did for the sister of a friend. The challenge was creating something meaningful of a seamingly unexciting photo first glimpse. I wanted to enhance the beauty of the scene. I was immediately drawn to the picture with the girls skipping away so carefree. We decided to change up the setting and placed them in a meadow-like background and let them run free. I let the butterflies from the dresses fly off and join them in their future adventures.

In my opinion art is not as much about great technique as it is about connecting with emotion through the medium of art. I appreciate original art that stirs an emotions, enlightens me or shows me a different point of view. I love art that reminds me of something beautiful, surprises me, makes me sad or nostalgic, makes me cheerful. What does art mean to you and how does it make you feel? This painting of mine is one of my all-time favourites. It's painted with a limited palette of Payne's grey and titanium white, however I love the bold brushstrokes and suggestive parts. "Burlesque Beauty" Acrylics on canvas 24x24x0.75 inches Edges are painted. Wired, ready to hang. 💥 Use the link in my bio for purchasing details, or link below 💥 https://www.dailypaintworks.com/artists/nadja-mak-13692 #dailypainting #createdaily #boldandloose #dailypaintworks #kunst #paintloose #brushstrokes #dailypaintworks #artoftheday #inspiration #paintaway #artdare #artinspiration #nadjamakart #artlovers #fineart #lisastansfield #allwoman #emotions #commission
