It is really fun to use old CDs, seeds, some recycled materials and combine them with acrylics. The limited space on the old CD’s and the same form all the time forces me to be very creative with the colours and to think in a different way than usual when I am using canvas.

I can make 100 absolutely different CDeens (a new word for painted CD’s) and then from the 100 small pieces of CDeens I can create lots of new art  works. Vertical, horizontal, round, square – the bases could be very diverse.

Who is who? 48 cm x 12 cm on wooden panel

What do you think about this idea of using old CD’s to create an artwork?

This work is a part of a big installation entitled Personalities. It is created from CD's, acrylics and recycled material. A weird stuff. It is a great pleasure to create/ paint/ make this project real and alive.

I didn’t expect that a rodent would appreciate art! You see…..I was wrong. They do.
One of the agreements from the Four Agreements by Jose Ruiz says ‘do not make assumptions”. How true. I did not expect that mice would love art; my paintings particularly. Perhaps I shouldn’t have used so many tasty seeds? This painting (see the image) has been eaten by mice (I assume so, I hope that we have only mice here and no rats!). I assume that they were mice, I don’t expect bats or spiders would eat my painting, maybe I am wrong?
This is my new painting from the series 'The Personalities'. The title is ‘The Family’. Maybe I will bring some changes into it the next few days……I am not sure of it is ready or not.
