Painting workshop & artist inspiration —
In this workshop we were taught how to create our own canvas, which is of course extremely beneficial for many reasons: can be made in an eco-friendly way, better quality overall, can be cut to the exact size desired, and in some cases it can end up being less expensive (especially when working with a bigger scale). Although I am not amazing at DIY, I still enjoyed the making process and seeing it all come together.
Although my finished canvas is not yet painted on, the premise reminds me of other painters I am inspired by. I have always been a huge fan of Jimena Reno’s work — for both her artwork and work ethic. She is a successful freelance artist, and her overall style & layering of paint is very inspiring to me. This influence will probably later be incorporated into my work through what I choose to paint.
