Cold light (2021) Pittura da Alexandra Ghimisi

Alexandra is a visual artist and an Art Educator based in Nottinghamshire, the UK. Through live workshop events, and online training courses she helps painters, both amateur and professional alike, to loosen up their painting style, understand art design fundamentals and discover the joy and freedom of painting.

She has completed her BA in Fine Art at Bucharest National University of Arts in 2008. Since graduating she has worked as an interior designer for her own company. In 2016 she has decided to live in the UK with her family. 

Her work is a celebration of light, revealed in rich and vibrant acrylic paint using her personal visual language of fresh and direct brushmarks. She finds beauty in the ordinary, mundane and in the grand vista. Coastal locations, forests and National Parks provide her with rich and endless subject material.

She loves the intense, saturated colours and many of her paintings are re-imagined creations of different times of day. She uses vivid colors to excite the imagination, allowing viewers to explore their own experiences and dreams of the wide outdoors.

Sometimes, she likes to apply the paint thick, with paint strokes which have an impressionistic feel that makes you want to reach out and touch the canvas. She wants her paintings to be as alive and vibrant as the scenery that inspired them. Sometimes, her approach is one of simplicity and economy, striving to make every mark count in her earnest pursuance of capturing the poetry of a fleeting effect of light.

Her abstract art is a vehicle for endless experimentation and exploration, and is largely inspired by her discoveries of her inner world.

Every time she is surprised by the process of creation. Also she likes the final result, the creative process she enjoys the most - free experimentation, free emotions captured in a brush stroke or a shade of colour.

Her abstract paintings juxtapose opposing elements: opaque and transparent, organic and geometric, textured and smooth, large and small, dark and light.

Through abstraction and experimentation she can express the communication between surface and subconscious, searching for an emotional response.

She believes that the excitement and the process of making art lead to creating something unique. Her mediums include acrylic and mixed media.
