In this "work-in-progress" video I introduce you to my abstract acrylic painting "Weightless". I show the complete creative process from image composition to finalization.
I painted exclusively with acrylic paints on a canvas.

Title: "Weightless"
Format: 40cm x 40cm
Material: acrylic on canvas

My name is Kirsten Handelmann, I am a freelance artist and qualified graphic designer from Hanover in Germany. My great passion is abstract painting.

In my videos I would like to give you insights into my work processes, i.e. applying layers of paint, assessing them and painting over them again. I would also like to introduce you to some of my finished works and also show you small scenes from my daily artistic work, such as preparing a work for shipping when it has been sold.

But what I also want to document is that not everything always leads to satisfactory results straight away. It can be a long process with many detours until the work is finished for me, and sometimes it is better to put the work away for now.

I usually work on several paintings at the same time, which I repeatedly bring out and re-evaluate. Often, with a little distance, I can immediately see what they need.

I only use acrylic paints and very consciously use the interplay of the different transparencies.

I bought all the materials myself, but I still mark my videos with the word “advertising” in some places because I can’t always prevent products or product names from appearing in the video.

If you like my work, I would be very happy if you would subscribe to my channel, like, share and comment on my videos. Thanks so much!

Now I wish you much joy
