Monika Kwarciak - Frozen Lakes IV

The painting was created using natural pigments and acrylic paints. I prepare all pigments by hand. The texture of the painting was formed from sand and acrylic. The whole thing was coated with a matte spray varnish. The paintings have hooks mounted on the back and are ready to hang. The edges are protected with black paint.

For each painting I include a certificate of authenticity.

The actual colors of the painting may differ slightly from those shown in the photos (due to natural daylight and a bright room – they will be more intense).
Differences also depend on individual monitor/screen settings (I edit the photos on an iPhone SE 2020).

My paintings are made on thick canvases (380 g/m²), on stretchers made from strong battens 20x35 mm with an additional crossbar 15x30 mm, making the artwork sturdy and stable.
