Maya's Art Studio

Hello everyone!
My work is also influenced by the Japanese Kintsugi Method of repairing ceramics and Wabi-Sabi - a Japanese school of thought, that teaches us to embrace imperfection, impermanence and transience in ourselves and the world around us.    
Erosion, Oxidation, peeling paint, rust, and bare boards all serve as a kind of poetic personal journey evoking the etched markings of wrinkles and scars, enhanced by gold and silver. The paintings are all about texture. Everything appears highly tactile and three dimensional.  Light is not reflected, but comes from within, permeating every layer, as it creates the narrative of aged surfaces.
I will do my best to share some of my work practices, experiments and painting techniques on this channel. Thank you for stopping by!
