While I was waiting for the spring sun (2022) 绘画 由 Mariya Markina

Original artwork "While I was waiting for the spring sun"

A new series of works is devoted to the study of oneself from a new perspective. I decided that it was time to experiment a little and moved away from my favorite topics to a more interesting one for me. But fundamentally not mine. A little reflection on what happens to a person when he is alone with himself, alone. This story is mysterious and extremely individual. Multi-layered. I want to discover a new world by immersing myself in the owl "I". To see the versatility in it. A person can be anyone, how many personalities, how many qualities are in him. A new series of works is just on this topic. The inspiration for the paintings and drawings in this series were my feelings from the parental leave. On the one hand, it's a wonderful time that you dedicate to a new person, the most important person on the planet, but on the other hand, you plunge into total loneliness and a pool of self–reflection. The answers to all my questions have not been found, but my path lies through these works.

The art work is done in a mixed technique. The undercoat is painted with acrylic paints. I worked the lines with markers of different thicknesses, ink. The elaboration of the details and the eyes themselves are painted with oil pastels.

I love to combine different materials in my work. After all, it is not always possible to get the desired result using only one material. In my works I often mix materials, I love such experiments. This is how interesting combinations of textures and textures are born, which can be viewed for a long time. It's a real treat for the eyes.
