Uni work... (image heavy)

So 2014 was the year I put on my final show, had the group show in London and then graduated.
I haven't posted any photos from the show and unfortunately I can't find any high quality images so I'm using tablet/phone photos, hopefully they won't be too bad.

 Yet to be titled & Kaiken alussa… (In the beginning…) 
(Oil Paint)

My work is a mix of acrylic and oil paints, some pieces may have a base of acrylic paint to be then finished with oils or they may stay acrylic pieces. Playing around with layering, colours and tensions. The depth on the paintings aren't properly translated through the photographs but the layering is there. For my final pieces, Japanese prints were highly influencial through the marks and colouring and I found myself using colours I wouldn't ordinarily use.
I've found that I'm the kind person of person you will see mouthing along to the words of songs playing through their earphones regardless of being in public, especially on buses. This comes through in my physical act of painting. Luckily I don't have spectators observing me paint. 

Some close ups.
