Welcome to this advanced art tutorial, where we delve into the captivating realm of abstract art by creating a contemporary abstract painting that may evoke an abstract landscape. The texture we will be working with is exceptionally unique, as I have developed a distinct method using aluminum foil to create a mesmerizing, eye-catching effect that stimulates the imagination.

In this tutorial, I will guide you through every step of the creative process, sharing professional techniques and expert tips to help you achieve the desired result. We'll be utilizing brushes, sponges, and even employing the technique of removing paint with water when necessary. You will notice intriguing craquelure effects in certain parts of the painting, which are a result of my specific drying process at various stages.

The incorporation of aluminum foil and wool yarn as foundational textures allows us to experiment with light reflections and metallic undertones, resulting in a striking, modern aesthetic. This innovative approach of using unconventional materials in art challenges traditional boundaries and expands the horizons of creativity.

I am thrilled to accompany you on this artistic journey, where you will uncover new possibilities for your own practice and create a breathtaking abstract landscape. Join me as we explore these advanced techniques and push the limits of artistic expression.

  • I liked how the landscape developed so naturally at the laying down of the foil. Trees just popped up. I am 65 yo at the early stages of parkinsons deasease. Sewing has been my creative medium since 5 yo. I'm having a hard time spending much time at it because it requires so much movement. I'm trying to create a quilt for all the church children about 20. And blankets with their help for the homeless in our community.

    The sun rises over the dark forest I cross the little bridge over the stream and sit by the hedges Hours pass by one after another Stars are falling from the sky onto the grass... There is poetry in your paintings, querido Sergio! With my deep love ❤️

    Hallo lieber Sergio. Sehr schöne, interessante Strukturen ergeben sich durch die Alufolie und das Garn. Auch die Farben sind sehr harmonisch. Das Ocker schimmert auf der Folie golden. Alles sehr stimmig und interessant. Vielen Dank dafür. Auch daß du uns immer so schöne Bilder aus Madrid zeigst, freut mich sehr. Dankeschön mit ganz lieben Grüßen Gisela ❤

    Querido Sergio, el viaje ha sido maravilloso, veo la sabana y unas preciosas jirafas caminando por ella. Esos espectaculares tonos cálidos que té caracterizan , me roban la mirada y siento ganas de ir y sentir su tierra en mis pies. Gracias siempre por tu talento y por mostrarnos tus trabajos. Hasta un próximo viaje, un abrazo. 😘❤️🇪🇸💙💙💙

    Oh my! All kinds of fabulous textures here dear Sergio! So many beautiful layers of paint come peeking through and I love how you’ve blended the yarn pattern into this piece. You started ,coincidentally with umber coloured wool and created layers of lovely colours over it and gave it a final dabbing of umber! How fitting! You know the one thing that worried me was the air that gets trapped under the foil but it seems to get absorbed some how through the canvas? It did that with tracing paper too. I was very very careful not to wet that too much as it might burst! ‘Air today! Gone tomorrow!"😉💖beautiful building! I could live on the top floor! Is this a condo building Sergio or a boutique hotel? Just gorgeous architecture!😍
  • @OakbyBetina
    Absolutely stunning. Will be giving the foil a try.
  • @silviadietze522
    Eine sehr schöne Kreation auf Leinwand vom Dir die Du ins wieder präsentiert hast, es ist so ein schönes Kunstwerk mit verschiedenen Materialien und Farben, ich liebe es. Danke schön Sergio für diese kleine Impression von Madrid💜.
