New Year – New Mediums!
2016, Art Info, Interesting facts, Nestor Toro ArtistI like to experiment and push the limits…it’s really the ONLY way to make new discoveries! If you have never failed at something you have never tried something new…it just goes hand in hand BUT it also leads to amazing new places and discoveries!
So I saw some color new things online that I decided to try. One is a new type of acrylic paint imported from Japan. They are very vivid colors and called Holbein Artist’s Polymer Emulsion Opaque Colors – Acryla Gouache.
New Year and New Mediums go hand in hand!
Next I ordered some interesting Oil Pastels sticks. I have used similar ones in the past on a few works for details and was pleased with the results so why not keep going! It’s a new year and I am always wanting to grow so I try new things all the time. As I said, the results are not always predictable but it’s the only way to get something special. I refuse to be an artist that perfects something and then spends the rest of his or her life doing over…and over…and over again!
I feel that the only way to really be a TRUE ARTIST is to always be pushing forward and never content to simply stay in the same place. As an artist I am oddly motivated to create and that is a living passionate force and not simply a stagnant frozen force. Passion burns because it is alive! You only live once so fell and live with passion.

Very contemplative lavender colorfield full of colorful details and rich in texture. This painting has an iridescent tint and all the colors contrast with each other perfectly. Gesso was smeared over a solid yellow base creating the first layer. Glossy green and blue were applied next making organic shapes and lines. The final layer was lavender and yellow. High quality acrylics used. Delicate and elegant.
