Bliss by Belinda Aikas

Features

ARTIST NOTES: BLISS...vibrancy in it's deliverance, as she rises and peaks from the pristine ocean. Upon descent, she is a fleeting moment, a forceful entity of the ever-changing sea.Enliven your space with calming ocean blues, watch the painting transcend throughout different times of the day. In a bright airy space, the painting will sparkle and glisten, becoming a statement piece as part of your home decor. Bring the soothing tranquility of the sea into your home. BLISS is a mixed media piece using acrylics, inks, enriched ocean blue hues, impasto and texture mediums provide the depth and sweeping motion in defining movement in the wave. Acrylic paint infused with metallic and pearlescent elements enhance the shimmer of the wave and the glistening sea. BLISS has been carefully hand painted and finished with a textured coat of resin finish to further define the water element of the piece. Gemstones embellish the effervescent salt spray of the wave.BLISS is a canvas that I commenced inĀ  painting demonstration held on siteĀ  at the Moonee Valley Art Show in 2019. I elect to sign my wave series on the side edges of the canvas as not to interfere with the visual impact of the wave. The painting is also named and signed on the rear side of the canvas.

ARTIST BIO

Belinda Aikas is an Australian born Melbourne based contemporary artist with a strong afflication with the Surf Coast

She has an extensive working career in the creative fields of Visual Merchandising and Interiors industries which inevitably developed her passion for persuing creating Art

Drawing on her experience as an Interior Decorator, she creates bespoke artworks and  commissioned pieces upon request.

With a Diploma in Interior Design and Certificate in Applied Art-Interior Decoration she is able to meet with clients in assisting them scale the appropriate Artwork for their interior space.

Primarily, inspirations derive from the glorious Australian Coastline, a lifetime of Summers (and Winters) spent at the Surf Coast along the Great Ocean Road.

Sunset vistas, long walks at the beach, swimming in the ocean, storms and rainy days...

"I am passionate about incorporating these feelings and memories, capturing the elements of those moments into my canvas artwork creations" 

Her work is held in private collections in Australia and overseas.

Belinda is an experimental mixed media artist, creating seascapes, waves and modern contemporary pieces in assorted mediums including acrylics, watercolours, ink, impasto, pearlescent and metallic hues, often finishing off a painting with a resin enhancement. Her creations are diverse and varied, so one day you may see a painting of rolling wave and the next one may be contemporary, modern, bold & abstract.
