A modern way to create a landscape painting.
The large-format abstract landscape painting measures 110 × 150 cm and consists of paint residues and binder. The paint residues used for this painting are colorful. Acrylic paints, oil paints, and leftover varnish interact with one another in the most diverse variations of color, shape, and size. The sizes of the paint residues range from very fine dust to paint chunks with a diameter of about 0.7 cm. It is the differences in size of the paint residues that allow for a composition. In this way, art can be presented in a modern manner. Below are some key facts about the painting.
An abstract painting made from leftover paint.
From a distance, the work initially appears to depict an earthy or sandy, beach-like surface. As you take a few steps toward the painting, you realize that the work is completely colorful and made up of small paint residues. The wave structure arises solely from a repeating, linear accumulation of larger chunks of paint. The abstract painting becomes more concrete the longer you look at it: in your mind, wind, water, and eventually the beach emerge.
A modern ambiance through subtle colorful texture.
"Field of Mars CLX" makes the strongest impression in a bright room. The unusual spatiality – the haptics (three-dimensional) combined with the contrasts (two-dimensional) – creates a very original and interesting ambience that can only be fully explored over time. The spatial effect is extremely subtle, so that a very fine, elegant, and stimulating presence emanates from this painting.
This kind of modern art is not accessible to everyone. Nevertheless, the result of experimental painting can spark curiosity. Especially when the juxtaposition of old (paint residues) and new (painting) or the title "Marsfeld" – incidentally a place of political confrontation in ancient Rome – gives rise to associations.
The artist Mark Hellbusch - from expressive painting to experimental art.
I have been a freelance artist since 1997 and have engaged with a variety of themes in painting. While I was almost exclusively involved with expressive painting until 2007, today my focus is more on modern, experimental art. My Personal backgroundas well as almost all artistic themes can be found under "About me."
