MATEJKO'S BUFFON
painted in photoshop

As inspiration for this painting I used a masterpiece of one of my favorites painters, Jan Matejko.

I changed though the meaning of the painting and transformed it in a reflection on the performer/artist relation with the public/costumers. I liked very much to experiment here with the textures that constitutes the buffoon's clothes or the wooden and velvet parts of the chair.

This painting was another good opportunity to experiment with the Photoshops brushes and effects.

LITTLE PEASANT
tempera painting

Still life with a doll wearing Romanian traditional clothes.

The use of tempera gives the painting an iconic and picturesque feeling. Tempera is a very nice painting medium when you have to paint colourful, detailed and delicate motifs.
