Medium: Mixed media, oil and acrylic

Burn it Slow
Medium: Mixed media, oil and acrylic

These works were created during the lockdown periods in 2020. I used mixed media, oil and acrylic. They represent my hopes and dreams, and also my inner frustrations, personal sufferings as directly caused by Covid-19. I tried to color the inspirations that came directly from my real-life experiences – anything that jumped out from both the big and small struggles during the London lockdowns. The ideas behind the works were quite complex, so I preferred using unlikely color combinations to make them look dramatic.
